Inuyasha: The Tale Of The Foretold Marrige - The Beginning

[Red Dragon]

"He will come looking for you now, you know that." Seshomaru said sitting down next to her. "Yeah, but I guess I shouldn't of shown them my curse." Inuka said looking at her palm. "You didn't." he said starting to get up. "They thing I'm some sort of fire demon, for sure." she scoffed. "You know thats not who you are so don't even think it." he said harshly. Rin watched us with wide eyes. "Really? Well then what am I?! I have the power over death its self and still I keep slipping up." she shouted at him hackles raised. "The reason that monk gave me this heart in the first place!" she continued. "You are my little Inuka, who wants to fit in to a world that isn't ready for her." he said quoting father. Inuka slumped back to the ground defeated. "Feh! What good is it when I can't even protect your family..." she said leaning against him. She shook her head and barked out an atempted laugh. "Look at me, can't even cry..." she said disheartedly.

[m1abrams]

"I promise you I wont, never again...I wont let it happen. You are so important to me, I never want to have to see you like that again, I love you too much to let it happen," I said holding her even tighter.
Miroku and Sango who had joined Inuyasha and Kagome outside, had taken up a position right outside the door. They had herd what was being said, but were more worried with what was going on with Inuyasha.
"That girl said she was Sesshomaru's sister, but that means you have a sister as well," Kagome said looking up at Inuyasha.
"Feh I dont have a sister, I dont ever remember anything about her," Inuyasha said turning his head away.
"But Inuyasha you cannot discard the possibility," Miroku said looking over to him.
"I dont have a sister, how many times do I have to say it. She is probably just so entralled by Sesshomaru she made up some lie about it," Inuyasha said walking off.
While the others took care of that whole issue outside, I had pulled away from Saiyaka, and was now holding the injured Kokoru in my arms. I was looking her over, trying to find out how Naraku had controled her. It was then I noticed the glow coming from her forhead.
"It's another shard of the Shikon Jewel," I said rather surprised.

[Red Dragon]

Inuka nose told her that something was amiss. "I have to get back to camp." she said worried. "Some things wrong." she said taking off back toward camp. She would protect her other 'brother' Inuyasha, what existed of her broken 'family'.

[Chibi-chan]

Saiyaka had now managed to stop crying and she nodded, looking at the shard and sighing. "Thats...Usually how he does it," she said, shaking her head a little. "I'm sorry it happened," she said after a minute of looking at Kokoru. "She really didn't deserve that, being controlled and all," she admitted, scratching the back of her head a little bit, remembering what she had said about joining with Naraku if one more person said they were going to kill him. "I won't join Naraku, no matter what anybody says," she stated to Tach out of nowhere.

[Red Dragon]

'Somethings coming.' the wind told her. 'Something not right.' A stupid rhyme that the humans used to tease her with poped in to her head. She siad it aloud out of habit "By the prickling of my thumbs, some thing wicked this way comes"

[m1abrams]

I slowly took the shard out, using the tip of my knife to remove it. When I took it in my hand, it still had the anomous black glow from when Naraku controled it.
"We best have Kagome pruify this shard before it falls into the wrong hands again," I said getting to my feet.
I walked just outside the door, and everyone was there. Inuyasha looked very unsettled, and becuase Inuyasha was upset, so was Kagome. I walked over to her and held up the shard. Everyone became quite interested on how I just got it.
"I pulled this from Kokoru, this is how she was being controlled. However it is still black with evil, Kagome can you change it back," I said holding it up to her.
"Of course," Kagome said holding her hands out.
As soon as I dropped the shard into her hands, the blackness was replaced with the clear sparkle that best suited the shards. This was very reasuring, she was indeed a priestess, in some way or another. Kagomed reached just inside her shirt and pulled out the vile that held the other jewel shards, we now had six, the three she allready had, the two from the snake demons. And now this one.
"At this rate we wont even have to go after Naraku to get the jewel back, he seems to be almost delivering it to us," Miroku said happily.
"The unfortunet part is who the deliverer is, as important as these shards are. Each time we get a new one something or someone is sacraficed. I rather we dont get any shards, than have to see our friends in the pain that they go through," I said turning around.
It was getting rather late in the morning now, and if we were going to get anywhere we should move out now. Not only that, I was getting a bad feeling just from being here. The demon snakes and Kokoru being controled should have been good enough signs, this temple was not a safe place to be. I walked back into the temple and shut the door behind me, walking back over to Saiyaka I knelt down infront of Kokoru who was still unconsious.
"We need to leave this place now, enough things have happened here allready. I feel it best if we leave this place behind us, and continue on," I said to Saiyaka.

[Chibi-chan]

Saiyaka gave the smallest of nods, thinking that it would be a very good idea to just leave here. She wanted to move right along, and hopefully not run into anything bad for at least a few minutes. That's all she really wanted, was to just be left alone by shards, fire, Naraku...Anything that would make things worse than they already were.

[m1abrams]

Kagome and the others were packing up all of their things, wich for everyone but Kagome wasnt alot, so really they were helping her pack her stuff. But while they were doing that, I still sat in the same spot with Saiyaka, I had rapped Kokoru up in a small blanket. That way when we started again, she wouldnt be disturbed or get hurt. She had a fever now, and would moan and shake in her sleep. Taking the jewel shard was causing her body, wich had probably gotten used to the shard, to just about fail everywhere.
"Hopefully this fever will go down soon, and she will wake up," I said looking at her.
"She should return to normal in time, the power of even that small a jewel shard was probably too much for her small body," Miroku said looking over at us.
"Are you sure Miroku, she will be okay," Shippou asked nervously
"Yes Shippou she will be fine, the fever will go down in about a day or so," Miroku said smiling at Shippou.
Miroku, even though he could be a pervert, was really alot of help when the time came. I was really greatful to everyone really, that had put up with all my mood swings and actions. If it wasnt for them we probably wouldnt have gotten this far.
"Sango, how old is your brother," I asked suddenly.
"My brother...uhh he is about 12 now," Sango answered rather surprised by my question.
"12 huh, I will remember that," I said getting to my feet.
I had picked Kokoru up and had her resting in my arm, I picked up just one of my sword and put it in my sash. I looked down at the sword and poped it out of its sheath just a inch, the silver blade reflected the small amount of sunlight coming into the temple. I slid the blade back in and looked up at the others.
"Right then, lets get out of this place," I said nodding my head.

[Chibi-chan]

Saiyaka nodded some and sighed a little, looking at Kokoru. She then nervously touched the jewel shard that she still kept in her own forehead, seeming to wonder if anything bad would come of it being there. Could Naraku do something to it from afar and make her injure her companions? She sure hoped that such a thing wouldn't happen. If it did, and she ended up hurting somebody, she'd never be able to forgive herself. Especially if it was Tach...

[m1abrams]

"Okay so let me get this strait, this thing here is called a CD player...and you can play music on it...interesting," I said looking over this odd round shapped thing Kagome had handed me.
"Yeah its really cool, want to listen," she said handing me these two round things that were attached to it by a string.
I fumbled around with this odd contraption, trying to figure out how you play music on it. As I screwed around with that, Inuyasha watched me with an odd expression on his face.
"Kagome what is the point of bringing such a useless contraption like that along with us," Inuyasha asked looking over at Kagome.
"And whats wrong with me bringing that kind of stuff with me," Kagome snapped.
Inuyahs backed off quickly when Kagome snapped, not wanting to get into an argument, strange though he usually likes to start stuff with Kagome. While I continued to try and figure out this stupid CD thing, I had used some rope and tied Kokoru in her blanket on my back so she was out of the way, and more comfortable for both her and me.
"Forget it, I dont even want to try and figure out how this thing works," I said handing it back to Kagome rather confused.
"Suit yourself," Kagome said putting it on her head and walked back up next to Inuyasha.
Kagome was such a weird person some times, I still remeber some of the things from when I was in that cave, but most of the stuff she had I didnt know a thing about. I had just about given up trying to remember anyways, it was kinda pointless really.

[m1abrams]

Sorry about the double post, I thought the computer didnt post my last reply, but it did and I didnt notice untill it was too late.

[Chibi-chan]

Saiyaka blinked at the CD player and took it out of Kagome's hands, blinking at it. She put the two padded circles over her ears and then messed around with a dial on it the that read VOL. When that didn't do anything, she pressed a few buttons, then yelped as she pressed one that said PLAY. Immediately, music blared into her ears and she threw the padded circles off of her ears, tossing the player into the air and holding her ears. "Owwie!" she whimpered, rubbing them. "You call that music?!"

Shippo gapped as he watched the CD player fall to the ground, and ran around in circles, prepared to catch it. He actually managed to, but not the way that he had planned. It ended up smacking him right on top of his head and plopped into his hands. "This thing is dangerous!"

[m1abrams]

"I wonder if it can be used as some kind of weapon," I said leaning down and looking at the CD player in Shippous hands.
Kagome quickly snatched up the CD player again and stuck it in her bag, she just kinda glared at us. Probably thinking of how stupid we were.
"Whats gotten into her," Shippou asked.
"I think she has been hanging around Inuyasha too much, she is getting a bad temper," I whispered to Shippou.
"I herd that," Inuyasha said hitting me upside the head.
A moment later, after I had recovered from Inuyasha's swift blow to the head, I was walking just beside Saiyaka, glaring up at Inuyasha who was in turn glaring back at me. It was going to be one of those days again, but before anything could come out of our little starting contest, Miroku noticed something missing.
"Tach, didnt you carry two swords," Miroku asked looking at the solitary sword on my hip.
"Used to," I said trying to avoid the topic.
"Yes I remember you always had the black bladed Katana that you slung on your back, did you forget it," Sango said looking at where my black sword would be.
"No I didnt forget it, I left it behind to be destroyed," I said folding my arms.
"Destroyed...how," Miroku asked curiously.
"How else do you think I destroyed it, I packed it between a bunch of explosive and blew it up," I said really anoyed by whole subject.
"You blew it up, I havnt seen nor herd any explosions," Inuyasha said turning around.
"Thats becuase it should go about...now," I said turning around.
And just like that, about 3 miles away where the old temple was, a large plum of flame and smoke filled the sky, kicking up trees and other objects into the sky, from where we were up on a hill it was quite the show, I had planned the explosion to go off way after we left. I didnt want it to scare Saiyaka.
"I packed the entire place with explosives just before we left and put it on a long fuse, that way I could be sure my sword would be destroyed," I said nodding my head.
"I'd say you packed it, how did you get ahole of all that," Miroku asked rather surprised.
"I have my sources," I said turning around to walk off.

[Chibi-chan]

When Saiyaka heard that the explosion was about to go off, she whimpered slightly and covered her ears, waiting for a few minutes to make sure she wouldn't hear it. Slowly, she looked back and saw the smoke, and let out a sigh of relieve. She hadn't heard the explosion at all, and was glad for that. However, Inuysaha saw her cover her ears and he smirked.

"Ahh...So! You're not only afraid of fire, but bombs as well, huh?" he asked, a strange look in his eyes. A rather evil one in Saiyaka's opinion. He motioned Shippo forward, and the little fox came, looking rather confused. Inuyasha began to whisper something in his ear and Shippo frowned, shaking his head a little. It looked like he didn't want any part of what Inuyasha was planning. However, a few bumps on the head seemed to change his mind.

"Inuyasha...What are you two whispering about?" Kagome asked, raising a brow at Inuyasha a little. "You're not planning anything bad, are you?" she asked. "If you are, you know what you'll get!" she told him, pointing to the beads around his neck.

"Relax...I ain't gonna do anything wrong!" Inuyasha said. "Come on, let's get moving!" he said, starting to walk of in the direction that they have been heading in.

[m1abrams]

I kept and very close eye on Inuyasha and Shippou from that moment on, I didnt know what he was planning. But the fact that he was planning anything made me worry. I had grabbed onto Saiyaka hand again, not only becuase I had gotten used to holding her hand, but I wanted to be able to yank her away in case Inuyasha decided to do something...stupid. It was then I felt that familiar calling, the call of nature.
"Uhh, I will be right back guys, dont go to far," I said taking Kokoru off my back and handing her to Saiyaka.
I quickly made my way out of sight, but before I could get much futher, there was another tad bit of an issue.
"I'm begining to see a patern here ya know," I said sighing.
"Did I catch you at a bad moment," Kagura said as she sat atop a rock.
"Yeah kinda," I said anoyed.
"No matter, I have mearly come to check on Saiyaka again, Naraku is still adament on keeping a close eye on her," Kagura said hopping down from the rock.
"Well I kinda figured that one out, I guess since I got rid of his little spy he needs to send you to watch us," I said watching her.
"Atleast I know your not as dumb as that other half breed," Kagura said smiling.
"I wouldnt call it dumb, he is in more of a permanet brain cramp than anything," I said thinking myself to be quite amusing.
"It seams you have a sense of humor as well, I can see why Saiyaka is so attatched to you," Kagura said alot more friendly then normal.
"Okay now I am starting to get the feeling your here for something more than to check on Saiyaka," I said noticing the odd way Kagura was behaving.
"There is no big mystery to be solved as to why I am here, I mearly came to check on Saiyaka," Kagura said getting slightly anoyed.
"Okay now thats the tone I am used too hearing from you, but I suppose since thats the only reason you are here I should let you know she is fine. Her burns are all but gone, and she is back to normal," I said a little more seriously.

[Red Dragon]

Inuka reached the camp to find it in a blaze. She saw tracks coming out of the camp and going on down the road. She sighed. At lest nothing bad has happened yet... "Now all I have to do is find them and warn them." she said moving on. They couldn't handle Narakus next child on thier own, especially Saiyaka. Inuka alone had had difficultys...

[Chibi-chan]

As soon as Tach had left, Inuyasha smirked some and looked at Shippo, giving the little fox demon a nod. He had no knowlegde of why Saiyaka was afraid of bombs. He just thought that she didn't like the sound or something.

Shippo gulped some, knowing that he'd probably get hurt for this. Then again, he'd get hurt if he didn't agree to do it. Sighing, he managed to get behind Saiyaka, one of his little firecrackers in hand. He mentally apologized and lit the firecracker with his fox fire. It made a rather large exploding sound.

Saiyaka screamed as loud as she could and almost dropped Kokoru. This had shocked her beyond the point of return it seemed as she crouched down and whimpered. Her entried body was shaking and there were tears comming to her eyes. Inuyasha knew that he had most likely made a mistake.

[m1abrams]

"Inuyasha SIT!!!" Kagome yelled rather quickly.
Before Inuyasha could explain anything, he was down in the dirt twitching. Shippou who was behind Saiyaka slowly backed away, but before he got to far. Miroku's staff came down out of no where and smashed him on the head. Shippou stood perfectly still as a large red bump apeared on his head.
"Now that is something I would have expected soly from Inuyasha, not you Shippou," Miroku said rather anoyed by Shippous actions.
"Saiyaka are you allright," Kagome said walking up to Saiyaka.
My head had very quickly spun around when I herd the little bang, I herd Saiyaka scream and I immediatly started running as fast as I could back to the group. Kagura was a little confused as to my actions, and almost fallowed me. But she knew if she did Inuyasha would most likely attack her.
"What the hell was that," I said running up to Saiyaka.
"Inuyasha and Shippou set of a fire cracker behind Saiyaka to scare her," Miroku explained.
"They did what," I said extream anger filling my eyes.
My head turned around quickly and caught sight of Inuyasha who was just getting back up after his sit. He noticed me quite quickly, the flames in my eyes as I made my way towards him.
"Uhh Tach, it was a compleat accident really," Inuyasha tried to explain.
"You IDIOT!!!!"
Inuyasha was knocked to the ground again, but this time it was a tad bit more harsh, I planted my fist right on his jaw as hard as I could and sent him flying. When he landed again, a small amount of blood dribled from the corner of his mouth. He reached up and whipped it away with his finger, when he saw the blood on his finger he was in complete shock.
"Do it again and I will leave more than a drible of blood and a bruise," I said turning my back to Inuyasha and heading back to Saiyaka.

[Chibi-chan]

Saiyaka was still shaking, and she slowly got to her feet, though she looked like she was about to fall over again. She knew that really went off, and knew it was no bomb, but she was still scared half to death by this. She slowly handed Kokoru back to Tach, and looked ready to run off somewhere, but she managed to stay put.

"Inuyasha was the one who put me up to it! Besides, neither of us thought that she'd react like this...We thought she's just didn't like the sound that bombs made when they went off. Or at least that's what I thought! I really didn't want to do it, but Inuyasha said he'd pound me!"

Inuyasha crossed his arms some, looking at Saiyaka, and seeming a little sorry about what he had done. "Yeah, I didn't know that she'd freak out like that...I just expected a yelp of surprise..." he said quietly.

[m1abrams]

"Well next time did deep down into that cavern you call a brain and think about what you are doing," I said still reather angry.
I reached out and grabbed ahold of Saiyaka's hand, now I really wasnt going to go anywhere. Not with this idgit around screwing things up, even as a kid he always rushed into things, not thinking before he did it.
"Shippou, I am still very surprised at you, you should have just come to me and I would have taken care of it," Kagome said looking at the guilty Shippou.
"I know but Inuyasha sounded really serious about it," Shippou said as he walked along side Kagome.
"Well I dont think Inuyasha will be coming up with anything more like that," Kagome said shooting Inuyasha a nasty look.
Inuyasha didnt really say anything, but he kinda knew he screwed up. He rubbed his face again where I had punched him, there was quite the bruise there. He knew know not to mess with Saiyaka like that, becuase I would more than likely...hurt him.
"Oh man I almost forgot," I said slapping myself on the forhead.
"What, whats wrong," Miroku asked.
"Hang on, I will be right back," I said dragging Saiyaka off to where I had left Kagura.
When I reached that place, practically dragging Saiyaka, Kagura was gone. There was nothing there, but a feather sitting atop the rock she was on.
"Huh, she must have left," I said kinda dissapointed.

[Chibi-chan]

Saiyaka saw the feather and smiled some, shaking her head a little. "I don't know if she came here for Naraku or for herself," she said. "It's a little difficult to tell now," she sighed. It seemed that she had gotten over the fact that the stupid fire cracker had practially shortened her life, she had been so terrified.

The jewel shard in her forehead suddenly glowed a little bit, and she frowned, placing a hand up to it. When she did, it began to glow even more, the color that the jewel glowed when it was tainted.

"What..." she started to say, then gasped and held her head, trying to get the jewel out of it. The shard glowed even brighter, almost blinding and began to sink into her skin, embedding itself into her skull. Saiyaka opened her mouth and let out a silent yell, then fell to the ground as she lost consiousness.

[m1abrams]

When I saw the jewel shard in Saiyaka's head starting to glow, I became slightly concerned. But then when she collaspsed I quickly caught her before she hit the ground. The jewel shard was glowing so brightly it was hard to look at, what was it doing and why was it glowing so brightly.
"Inuyasha! Get over here," I yelled as loud as I could.
Inuyasha herd me shout and he quickly made his way to me, the others fallowed him. When Inuyasha found us, he saw me covering Saiyaka's forhead.
"Whats going on," he asked.
"That jewel shard in her head started to glow, and then she collapsed. I think we need to get it out of her somehow," I said looking up at him and the others.
"Here let me try," Kagome said running to Saiyaka's side.
I moved my hand and Kagome reached down towards the glow, but her hand was pushed away before she could even touch Saiyaka. She sat back in complete shock that even her hand was knocked away.
"Kagomes hand was just knocked away, what could this mean. What is happening to her," Sango said becoming worried.
"I dont know, but I think the shard is killing her," I said as she rested in my arms limply.

[ShotokanKyuYon]

OOC: Hey everyone... I think I am going to back off on this Rpg:( . I can't keep up. I only read up to like the 460th post and every day I'm gone I have to read up more and I can't make myself a steady character in this game. So you all can do what ever you want with my char. Keep him, Kill him, Put him in a blender and feed him to cabbage addicted blue-green chicken eating patatoes, You know the works. I guess I'll see ya'll around :) Bye Bye

[Chibi-chan]

Saiyaka's breathing was quickly becomming quite irregular, and she began to break out in a sweat. There was also a fever comming on, shudders comming across her body every now and then. She looked like the shard was causing her a lot of pain.

"I don't know what to do!" Kagome whispered, looking at Saiyaka. She was still horrified that something had repelled her from getting the jewel out before it had gone into Saiyaka's skin. "I don't even know if there's anything we can do," she added, closing her eyes.

[m1abrams]

(OOC: Sorry to here you are leaving ShotokanKyuYon, I guess it does go really fast. You can probably blame that on me, I am always on my computer. I will make sure your character will re-appear and go out in a blaze of glory. It will make you proud to have thought him up)

"No...there is now way in hell I am going to let this stupid rock hurt her," I said pulling out my knife.
"Tach what are you doing, you could kill her," Miroku said rushing forward.
"She is stronger than that, there is no way this little knife will kill her. But it is sure as hell going to get this rock out of her!" I shouted as I forced the knife down onto where the shard was.
The shard was still putting up some kinda of barrier, and it was trying as hard as it could to repell my knife. But I wasnt going to let it, I pushed harder down, untill the tip of my knife broke through and reached Saiyaka's skin. I closed my eyes as the blade went just through the skin, a small amount of blood dripping down. I could feel the tip of my knife touch the shard becuase it started to send pulses of energy back into my arm.
"Tach its not working pull the blade out," Miroku said as the energy being released kicked up a strong wind.
"Not a chance, I'm not giving up yet," I said opening my eyes again and pushing harder.

[Chibi-chan]

A strong gust of wind, almost a tornado, blew Tach away from Saiyaka. Kagura appeared by Saiyaka, and she slowly pulled the knife out. "You should be listening to the monk...Remove the shard, and you might risk damaging her beyond repair," the wind demon said quietly.

Inuyasha had his sword out immediately, glaring at Kagura. "What are you doing here?!" he asked. "Let me guess...You want to take her back, so you're going to use this shard to control her?" he guessed, but knew he had the wrong answer as Kagura glared at him, eyes narrowed quite dangerously.

"No...I'm doing nothing of the sort...Why I came here? Isn't that a stupid question? I was stopping you from damaging her mind!" Kagura hissed, closing up her fan.

"Damaging her mind?" Miroku asked, frowning a little as he looked down at Saiyaka. "Why would that shard damage her mind if it was removed? It seems like it's doing damage already just by being in there."

"It's fusing with her mind somehow...Even Naraku doesn't know how it's happening, though he's kind of enjoying the fact that it's making her suffer," Kagura growled. "Since it's combining into her very brain, removing it may ruin her memory and other important things...

[m1abrams]

I tumbled along the ground, finally stopping myself by digging my claws into the ground. When I looked up I saw Kagura, and herd her entire explanation of what was happening to Saiyaka, I became more than confused.
"Kagura, is there nothing we can do," I asked getting to my feet.
"I dont know," Kagura said shifting her eyes towards me.
"This happened right after I met with you Kagura, is there something you are not telling me," I said approching her.
Kagura just looked at me, not saying anything. I knew the look in her eye, she didnt know what was going on any better than I did. However something in my last statement intruiged Inuyasha and the others.
"What do you mean you have met up with her before," Inuyasha asked.
"It means exactly how it sounds Inuyasha," I said looking over at a very additated Inuyasha.
"So in other words, you have been all buddy buddy with her. Tach what could you be thinking, she is the enemy," Inuyasha said quite angry now.
At this point Inuyasha was in part correct, Kagura though she has been helpful to us and has shown that she cares for Saiyaka, is still under Naraku's orders. But I had no choice but to trust her, she hasnt betrayed my trust thus far, wich meant she has some good in her...I hope she did atleast, she may prove to be a helpful ally in the future.
"Thats not important right now Inuyasha, whats important is that we find someway to help Saiyaka. And if Kagura has some way to help her, than you are just going to have to deal with it. I know its not in your nature too, but please, do this for me. I can't loose her Inuyasha," I said practically begging.
Inuyasha sat there for a minute, comtenplating what I was asking him. After what seemed forevere, he sheathed the Tetsuiga.
"Allright fine, just dont get used to this Kagura," Inuyasha said folding his arms.

[Chibi-chan]

"I'm afraid that I don't have any way to help her...The pain that she's feeling right now should subside after a while. Not to mention her fever and her other ailments," Kagura stated. "Just keep her fever down right now, until she wakes up," Kagura instructed. "I probably shouldn't be sticking around any longer, or else that fool might get suspicoius," she murmured, plucking out one of the feathers from her hair.

[m1abrams]

"Kagura wait," I said turning to face her.
Kagura stopped for a moment and looked at me out of the corner of her eye, the serious look on my face was mixed with that of fear. Kagura had come becuase she mearly wanted to save Saiyaka, and despite the fact that she was still under Naraku's orders, I had to ask her.
"Kagura stay with us, you dont have to go back to Naraku. I can see it in your eyes, you despise him as much as I do. So why toture yourself and stay in his presance, besides your ultimate goal here is to be free...is it not," I said surprising just about everyone within ear shot.
Kagura was the most surprised of all, I dont believe anyone...ANYONE ever showed this type of kindess towards her. In fact I think it scared her, the look on her face was like she had just seen a ghost or something.
"You dont have to answer me right now Kagura, I dont expect you too. But think about it, go back to Naraku and think about it long and hard. But you know that everytime you go back to him, you risk never being able to be free...he will eventually get rid of you Kagura," I said turning back to Saiyaka.
Kagura tried to say something, but she fought against it and hopped onto one of her giant feather and flew off. This was the first time anyone every showed concern for her well being, and she was scared to death of it.

[Chibi-chan]

Kagome blinked some, surprised at Kagura's reaction, and also surprised at the fact that Tach had suggested such a thing. Shaking her head, she went to see if she could find a stream or something so that she could use the cold water to bring down Saiyaka's fever, as told. Inuyasha also went, not wanting Kagome to go by herself.

Sango let out a sigh and sat down on a large rock, looking at Tach. "Was that really such a good idea? To ask her to join us?" she asked him. "I mean...If she could escape Naraku and all, why didn't she do it sooner?"

"That is a good question," Miroku stated, nodding a little as he leaned against a tree, looking to be deep in thought. "Well, we shouldn't worry about that right now...We need to get Saiyaka better."

[m1abrams]

(OOC: I just got done watching Samuai X: Reflection and OMG, it was so sad and confusing. I need a mental boost before I go into melt down, to many flashbacks on one day tends to drive me a little nutty)

"It was just a simple question okay," I said as I knelt by Saiyaka side.
"It was more that just a simple question, Kagura has been our enemy from the start. And you just flat out ask her to join us, what were you thinkning," Inuyasha said rather anoyed with me.
"I thinking that maybe she wasnt as evil as we had all orginially thought," I snapped back at him.
Inuyasha just snorted and sat down as Kagome came back with some water and a damp cloth. She handed the cloth to me and I in turn put it on Saiyaka's forhead. She was still shivering, and the fever was just getting worse.
"At the rate we are going, its going to take us forever to get Saiyaka to show us the way to Naraku's castle," Miroku said shaking his head.
"You make it sound like its all her fault," I said looking at Miroku.
"I am mearly stating a fact, everytime she is about to show us the way, something happens," Miroku said with a hopeless tone.
"Seriously Miroku could you be any more gloomy," Sango said giving Miroku a look.
"Despite this we cannot just stop here again, we have barely made it anywhere today and its allready in the afternoon. If Saiyaka is going to remain sick we are going to have to find someway of transporting her," Inuyasha said as he sat on the ground.
"We could always call on Hachi," Kagome sugjested.
"Thats a good idea Kagome, Miroku do you know a way that we can find him," Inuyasha asked him.
"I am sure he is not that far off, it will take me about an hour to locate him," Miroku said getting to his feet.
"Than get started, we will wait her untill then," Inuyasha said closing his eyes.

[Chibi-chan]

Saiyaka groaned softly and let out a gasp as the shard continued to delve deeping into her mind. Tears began to come down her cheeks as she head what Miroku was saying. It did seem like every time they were about to do something that would lead the group to Naraku, something bad would happen. Most especially, it seemed, to her. "I'm sorry..." she whispered, trying to fight through the pain. "I'm sorry..."

"Hey...You don't need to be sorry for anything, Saiyaka," Kagome said, frowning as it didn't take long for the cloth to dry up from Saiyaka's high temperature. "This isn't doing any good," she sighed, tossing the cloth aside. "Maybe she should be carried to the river so that I don't have to go back and forth so much!" she suggested.

"If her fever isn't going down from the water, why bother to bring her there?" Inuyasha grumbled, still seeming like he was mad at Tach for his suggestion he gave Kagura.

[m1abrams]

"It wont help any if we just keep putting a damp cloth on her head no, but it will if we throw her in the river," I said as I reached under Saiyaka to pick her up.
"What are you crazy!" Kagome gasped as I picked Saiyaka up.
"Yeah you could say that," I said as I started to carry her towards the river.
Everyone a little baffled by my behavior as usuall, ao they all quickly ran after me. When I reached the river I didnt even bother stopping, I just hauled right in there. Everyone stopped at the rivers bank and watched as I went in further.
"I get it now, he is going to let the river cool her entire body off," Miroku said as they all watched.
I made my way into the river untill I was chest deep in water, I stopped there and looked down at Saiyaka.
"Allright Saiyaka, this should help cool you down," I said letting her practically float in the water.
"I should go and help," Kagome said moving forward.
"No Kagome, they are find, just leave them be for now," Inuyasha said grabbing Kagomes shoulder.
I looked down at Saiyaka as she floated there in my arms, the cool water from the river seemed to be helping.
"Come on Saiyaka, please be okay," I said as I looked on her nervously.

[Chibi-chan]

Saiyaka shuddered as the cold water swept over her body, and she slightly clung to Tach, a small smile comming to her lips. The cold temperature of the water was doing good things for her fever, as well as her condition. She stirred slightly after a few minutes and let out a sigh, opening up her eyes. They were slightly bloodshot, but other than that, everything seemed to be fine. "I'm sorry," she whispered again. She couldn't seem to get it through her head that this wasn't her fault...not completely.

[m1abrams]

"Dont say sorry, there is no need for you too," I said releaved she was okay.
Now that her eyes were open and I could see that she was better, I also felt better. It was hard for me to see her in so much pain all the time. I slowly helped her to straiten out in the water so she could stand on the bottom. When I was face to face with her I threw my arms around her and held her as tightly as I could.
"I think she is okay again, thats a releife," Sango said breathing a sigh of releife.
"Good now maybe we can get moving again," Inuyasha grunted.
"Do you have any sympathy," Kagome shouted in Inuyasha's ear.
Back in the water I still held on to Saiyaka, not wanting to let go of her, but I knew that if I wanted to get myself out of the water anytime soon I should probably help her back to shore.
"Lets get going, before we catch a cold standing in this cold water," I said moving away from her.

[Chibi-chan]

Saiyaka nodded a little bit, her head resting against Tach's shoulder. "Yes...We...Need to get moving," she whispered, shivering because of the cold.

"Are you sure that you're fine with traveling, Saiyaka? I mean, we can wait another day if you still feel ill and all," Sango said, frowning a little. She could tell that Noriko was still in a little bit of pain. Just because the fever went down dind't mean that she was fine and dandy.

"I...We need to get moving...I've stalled you for long enough," she whispered, trying to walk on her own, but was having a little difficulty. She wobbled, her legs feeling like they were putty. She fell back against Tach, but not enough to knock them over.

"See? you can't even walk...Though if you really want to go ahead and travel, Kilala will probably let you ride her for a while," Sango suggested, shaking her head as she watched Saiyaka strain herself.

[m1abrams]

I felt Saiyaka fall against me, I didnt want to make her travel like this, but she was not backing down. Kokoru who was on my back again was still out, but she was fine now. She was just asleep, I reached my hand back and pulled Saiyaka up next to me. I put my arm around her back and put my other arm under her legs and began to carry her.
"Tach you cannot carry her the entire way," Sango said walking up to me.
"I'll be fine, lets just keep going," I said walked ahead faster.
"There can't be a village to far from here, we will spend the night there if needed," Miroku said.
I looked back at everyone, they were all behind me now. A general look of concern on their faces, but I ignored it. I knew I couldnt carry her the entire way, but I wasnt going to make her walk. I looked down at Saiyaka in my arms, I was hoping that maybe she would be able to sleep some. But at this same time I also had a question that was burning inside of me. Something that I had made a decision on the other night, when she had asked me to stay with her in that room. But I didnt know if now was the right time to ask her.
"Saiyaka, I know you are not feeling very well. And this probably isnt the best time to be asking this. But if we make it out of this...I would..."

[Chibi-chan]

"There's always the alternative," Naraku's voice called out. He had been hiding up in the treetops for a few minutes now, finding all of this to be very amusing. "You could give little Saiyaka to me...Or I can take her by force," he whispered, dropping down and stepping towards them. "Since I know that you won't give her by force, maybe I shouldn't have asked," he laughed, seeing the group get ready for a fight. "Come to me, Saiyaka!"

Saiyaka suddenly felt her whole body freeze up, not reacting in the way she wanted it to. The shard glowed from deep within her mind and she found herself ripped from Tach's arms against her will. She tried to speak, hold herself back, do something, but was helpless. She couldn't do a thing but go to Naraku against her will.

"You will come back and become a part of my body once again...You've run wild lately, and now it's time for me to take action and absorb you again. How very much like Mousso you are...rather, your father," he laughed. "He was rebellious when I let him out..."

[m1abrams]

"Get your filthy hands off her you BASTARD!"
Before Naraku could pull Saiyaka any closer, I had dashed forward as quickly as I could and run my sword through his chest. Naraku looking rather surprised as first looked down at me. After he got over his enetiall shock, he bacame quite angry.
"You worthless half breed," He said glaring down at me.
Naraku reached his arm around me and was ready to run me through with his hand like he did before. But I turned my head just slightly as saw it coming.
"Not this time, now DIE!" I yelled as I twisted my blade and thrust upward.
"What," Naraku gasped as my blade started slicing his body in half vertically.
I used as much force as I could as I thrust my balde up, Naraku's hand came down and sliced open a gash on my side. I felt the pain but kept going, my sword slowly making its way towards his neck.
"I'm not that easy to kill," Naraku said as large spidder legs emerged from his back.
"Easy enough," I said with an evil smile.
Naraku's spider legs came around his body and aimed right at my back, he grinned evily as they came down at me.
"Tach get out of the way," Inuyasha said as he ran at Naraku the Tetsuiga drawn.
I felt the pain coming from my back and two of his legs peirced strait through my body, one in my stumach, the other through my shoulder. I coughed up a large amount of blood, as I used all my strength.
"No get away from him Tach," Inuyasha said as he slashed at Naraku cutting off one of his spider legs.
Naraku used his other leg and tossed me away, forcing the blade out of him at the same time. I flew back through the air, one of his legs still peirced through my body. When I hit the ground I slid back untill I slammed into a rock. I slowly opened my eyes, and saw the blury figure of Saiyaka as she was being pulled towards Naraku. I raised my hand and tried to reach for her.
"Saiyaka...no," I said as my hand fell to the ground.
My eyes closed as my blood pooled around me, turning the grass around me red.

[Chibi-chan]

Saiyaka's eyes widened as she saw all this happen, her mind screaming out for him as she tried to get away from Naraku, but she kept right on going towards him. Tach! ...Please, don't die...don't die on me! Even if I'm going to be brought into Naraku once again...Live, Tach!

Naraku laughed as his flesh began to devour Saiyaka's body into it. "No more rebellion...You thought that you could lead them straight to my castle, didn't you? You thought you could do whatever you pleased, just because your father held me back," he smirked. "He's not helping you now, though, is he?!" he added, then gasped as his right arm began to expand, the flesh rippling a little. "What?! No! This can't be!" he hissed.

Inuyasha, who looked ready to use the Tetsaiga, stopped as he saw this. "What...What the hell is happening to him?!" he asked. He jumped back as Naraku's arm released some flesh, forming another incarnation. Then he gasped as he realized that it wasn't another one, but one that he had encounted before.

The incarnation stood up and glared at Naraku, eyes narrowed and full of anger. He ran to where Saiyaka was, halfway absorbed. He reached out and grabbed her hand, managing somehow to pull her out. "You dare touch her and try and make her a part of you again...I won't allow it!" he hissed, holding her close to him.

[m1abrams]

A drop of water awoke me, or atleast I thought I was awake. I slowly opened my eyes and tried to get up, but I was stuck against that rock by Naraku's damd spider leg. When I looked around me, all I could see was darkness, but then I saw...Saiyaka, in the arms of someone else. She still looked so firghtenned.
"Saiyaka!" I yelled out trying to get myself free.
"Stay still my son, or you will further injure yourself," a voice said from behind me.
"What...who is there," I aid turning my head trying to see who it was.
"Tach, you are so close to death, that I can speak with you again...my beautiful boy," the voice said as a ghostly figure appeared infront of me.
When I saw the face of the figure, I could do nothing but stare. It couldnt be, she was dead...she has been for so long now.
"Mother...its you," I said my eyes widening.
"Yes Tach, its me," my mother said as she rapped her arms around me.
"Mom, it is you. Its really you," I said as I burried my face in her chest.
She slowly put a hand on the back of my head and I wept, so glad that I could see my mother again. I dont know how, but she was there, as plain as day.
"Tach, I need to tell you something," she said pushing me away.
"What is it," I asked tears still in my eyes.
"You are dieing from the wounds you have received, that is how I am able to speak with you. But you cannot die, the desire to is no longer there in your heart. You have found someone to care for again and are not willing to die, wich is why son I cannot let you come and join me in the after life," she said smiling.
"But mom I..."
"No son, you must return to her, she loves you, as you love her," She said as she started to dissapear.
"But how can I help her," I asked as she left.
"Use the power within you Tach, there lies the answer you seek," my mother said as she dissapeared again forever.
"Saiyaka I'm coming!" I yelled as my eyes sprung open again allowing me to see everyone.

[Chibi-chan]

The incarnation laid Saiyaka down, seeing that she had lost consiousness when she was being devoured by Naraku's body. "I brought this upon you...I'm sorry," he whispered to her, kissing her forehead softly. "Naraku...You are not to lay a finger on my daughter," he hissed, turning back to Naraku. "That goes for sending others to do it for you!"

"You fool...I don't know how you managed to get out of my body, but you will go back in this instant!" Naraku scowled. "You dare tell me what to do? I'll come after that girl no matter how many times it takes! After I get rid of you for good, as soon as I don't need you to hold me together, I'll wring the life out of that wretched child of yours, Onigumo!" he scowled.

Saiyaka woke up and saw her father, or at least the back of him, her eye widening slightly. "F...father?!" she whispered, struggling to get up, but her father's sharp words stopped her from even liftling her upper body.

"Saiyaka...Get too close and he may try and absorb you again...Right now, the best thing that you can do for me is just get the hell out of here," Musou said, glancing back at her. "You will forget that I am a part of Naraku, and you will kill him, regardless of what may happen to me," he said sternly.

[m1abrams]

I strugled to get to my feet, when I supported myself on the rock I felt a strong stinging pain coming from my shoulder. When I looked at the spider leg that was stuck in my shoulder I saw that it was dissintigrating. When it was gone I looked back over at Naraku, and the man standing infront of him. I started to walk forward, picking up my sword as I went.
Inuyasha and the others caught sight of me walking again, Inuyasha quickly ran up to me.
"Tach you fool get back down your injured," Inuyasha said trying to put a hand on my shoulder.
But as he touched my shoulder, a strange shock sent his hand flying back. He looked at me and saw that I was not even paying attention to him. He stopped and I walked on, untill I came up beside this other man who had appeared from somewhere. I didnt even bother looking at him, I just stod by his side and rose my sword.
"Your Saiyaka's father right," I said still not looking at him.
"That I am," the man said looking over at me.
"Good, then stay back and dont get yourself killed," I said walking passed him.
I walked towards Naraku, who was rather distraut over the whole situation. Not only was it hard for him to keep any form with Onigumo seperated from his body, but I think I just may have injured him with my first attack.
"You come at me even though you are near death, you tempt your fate half breed," Naraku said trying to scare me off.
"Nice try Naraku, you know just as well as I do that you cannot last five minutes without Onigumo inside of you," I said smiling as a small amount of blood dribbled out the corner of my mouth.
"Even so you are too injured, even if you were able to kill me, you would die as well," Naraku snickered.
"If thats what it takes to make sure Saiyaka will be happy that so be," I said whipping away the blood and grinning.

[Chibi-chan]

Saiyaka's eyes widened as she heard this and ran over to Tach, holding him to keep him from doing anything rash. "No! That won't make me happy...Not if you die!" she whispered, shaking her head as she held him. "I don't want either of you to leave me," she whispered. She couldn't choose one over the other...it was just impossible for her.

Musou smiled a little, a sad smile as he walked past them, looking at Saiyaka and Tach. "You need to live for her sake...All I did back when I was Onigumo...I made Sai suffer, even though she said that she was fine with me being a bandit, going from place to place. She put up with all the stealing, killing...everything," he said. "Then that day, when the fire broke out...When that man set off the bomb. It was my recklessness that killed her in the first place. You can take better care of her than me," he said to Tach. "Go and take her somewhere safe...Now..."

[m1abrams]

I looked over at Musou, I could see the seriousness in his eyes. He wanted me to leave with Saiyaka...and now. I didnt exactly want to leave Naraku without at least slicing one of his body parts off, but it didnt look like Musou was going to give me much choice.
"Musou, you are Saiyaka's father, and I am the one who loves your daughter with all of my heart. And as such I must do as you instruct me too, but know this. If I had it my way, I would not let Saiyaka have to go through loosing her father again," I said as I looked back at Musou.
"I understand...now go," Musou said facing Naraku once again.
I quickly snatched up Saiyaka and started to run off.
"Come on we need to get out of here," I yelled to the others.
Inuyasha nodded and grabbed Kagome who this whole time had not only been holding onto Shippou, but the sleeping Kokoru as well. Sango and Miroku were quick to fallow on Kilala. I looked back at Musou and Naraku as we ran, he was going to sacrafice himself for our sake. He truly was Saiyaka's father.

[Chibi-chan]

Saiyaka clung to Tach, sobbing into his shoulder as they ran off, leaving her father behind to be taken by Naraku once again. She knew that Naraku wasn't going to be killing him, but the demon was still going to take him away from her. He wasn't dead, but sooner or later, they would have to kill Naraku...they would have to kill her father along with him. This was something that Saiyaka was unwilling to face.

"You know that you can't win against me...All you're doing is stalling time for that girl," Naraku laughed, shaking his head. "It's rather pathetic, don't you think? You're just going to be absorbed into me once again, and this time, you probably will never escape. I'll be extra alert from now on!"

Musou smirked some and shook his head. "It's not as pathetic as you may think it is, Naraku...I can't believe that I actually created something that would harm her again...That would make her suffer again," he scowled. "I deserve to be locked away inside that disgusting body of yours..."

[m1abrams]

I ran as fast as I could, taking large leaps through the trees as I went, Inuyasha was practically right next to me, he had Kagome on his back. I looked over at him, I could tell that he was anoyed that we had to leave. When we came back out into a large field I stopped, Inuyasha landed next to me and let Kagome down.
"I think we are far enough away for now, we can walk from here," I said lowering Saiyaka to the ground.
"Was it really nessicary for us to run off like that, with Naraku as week as he was we could have taken him out right then in there," Inuyasha grumbled.
"Yes Inuyasha we had to leave, it was a request that I could not ignor," I said as I started walking again.
"A request from who," Inuyasha asked stopping me.
"A request from Saiyaka's father thats who, he told me to take Saiyaka and leave. And I did as he said, I dont like it anymore than you do," I said looking back at him through the corner of my eye.
Inuyasha took his hand away from my shoulder and backed off, he looked down at his hand as saw it was all covered in blood, this whole time I had compleatly ignored my wounds. This whole situation was bugging the hell out of me, Naraku was able to escape again. And we were no closer to finding his castle than before, but what bugged me most of all was the fact that I couldnt do anything to protect Saiyaka. If it hadnt been for Musou appearing when he did, Saiyaka would probably have been absorbed into him.
"Damit all, what's the point if I can't even protect Saiayaka," I said to myself quiety.
I reached to my shoulder and touched my wound, it was still bleeding pretty bad, but the strange thing was I didnt even feel any pain. Nor did I feel weak from the injuries, its like something inside of me was numbing them to a point were it wasnt even like they were there. I had walked ahead of the group, I even left Saiyaka behind, I walked up to the top of a hill and found a nice rock to sit on. I ploped myself down and laied my sword down next to me.

[Chibi-chan]

Saiyaka watched Tach as he just walked off, even leaving her behind. He was injured and was paying no mind to his wounds. Tears had long since clouded the girl's eyes, blurring her vision. She couldn't help but think that everything that had happened was her fault. Tach getting hurt was especially tearing at her. She took a few steps towards him, but fell to her hands and knees. Her energy was practically sapped up, and she was beginning to get sick of being so weak. Scowling, she managed to get up and get to Tach, resting her forehead at his back. "Tach...you're hurt...you need your wounds treated now..." she whispered.

[Chibi-chan]

Meh...Ignore this one...

[m1abrams]

"They're fine, dont worry about it," I said just staring out into the distance.
I turned my head and saw Saiyaka resting her head there on my back, she looked exausted. Again Naraku had gotten the better of us and know we were going to be slowed down once again, he was getting a nack for doing that. I reached my hand over and put it ontop of Saiyaka's.
"You know, I think maybe we need to take a brake. We have been at this for awhile now, we are both injured and tired. And god knows we are running out of food and medical supplies, I think it might be best...if we just relax for awhile. Get our strength back up, and plus, it would give us some time to just be togther, without having to worry about Naraku poping out from behind a tree," I said trying to smile some.

[Chibi-chan]

Saiyaka nodded a little bit, looking at his wounds and frowning a little. She would be much more at ease if he took care of them, but if he said that things were fine, she would go ahead and believe him. "Thank you...for trying to save me," she whispered. "You've done so much for me already, and I'm so greatful for it," she told him, closing her eyes and clutching onto his hand. "I'm glad that you didn't die back there," she murmured, the tears escaping her eyes and rolling down her face. "I would have gone insane if you had used your life up, just to put an end to Naraku..."

[m1abrams]

"What did you think I was serious, as long as I have you I am never going to even think of dieing. Saiyaka as long as you are by my side, you dont have to worry about it, I promise you," I said looking back out at the horizon.
Inuyasha, who had heard the entire conversation thanks to his ears. Turned around to Kagome and the others.
"We are going to be heading back to Keade's village," Inuyasha said in a strange tone for him.
"Why are we heading back now," Kagome asked.
"Even I thought you would understand that Kagome, look at them. They are exausted, this entire time they have taken the burnt of Naraku's attacks. They are tired and hurt, and they need to rest. If we dont go back with them, then we might as well just throw them at Naraku's feet and leave," Inuyasha said as he started to walk off.
"Inuyasha I..."
Inuyasha just walked off not listening to Kagome, he was being grown up for once. Those words he said even reached me, I smiled and put my head down. My body was tired, and I was thankful to Inuyasha, the only one who could understand what we were going through right now. He truly was the friend I left behind those many years ago.
"Inuyasha...thank you my friend," I said under my breath.
Inuyasha stopped, picking up the words I had said, he turned his head and looked at me and Saiyaka as we sat on the rock..and smiled, the smile I remember him having as a child, the one expression he has never shown before.

[Chibi-chan]

Saiyaka looked at Inuyasha, surprise in her eyes at first, then gratefulness. She had never seen Inuyasha act like this, and although it kind of creeped her out a little, she was happy to see this side of him. It ment that he could understand people's feelings rather than his own, and she was happy for something like that inside of the half demon. "I thank you, Inuyasha," she whispered, closing her eyes once again. She looked like she was just going to go to sleep right then and there, but she wouldn't allow herself to force somebody to carry her.

[m1abrams]

"If we are going to leave shouldnt we go now, before Naraku comes back," Miroku said looking at Inuyasha.
"No, let them rest for awhile, then we will go," Inuyasha said as he sat against a tree.
Everyone looked strangely at Inuyasha, they were not used to him acting like this. It was like something finally snapped inside him and he was registering other peopels feelings.
"What they hell are all of you looking at," Inuyasha snapped when he noticed everyone staring at him.
"Well its just that you are acting...mature," Kagome pointed out.
"And thats a big deal why," Inuyasha said getting irritated.
"Its just that its nice to see you acting like this for once," Kagome said smiling.
Inuyasha just grumbled and closed his eyes, his mood had gone back to normal. Mainly becuase everyone pointed out that he was being nice. Meanwhile, I had all but fallen asleep just sitting there. I didnt know if it was becuase I was tired, or the fact I had a couple big wholes in my body. I was hoping it was the latter though. I opened my eyes again and saw the sun reflecting of a lake in the distance, it was nice to just sit and watch something like this.
"Saiyaka, there is something I have been meaning to ask you lately...but we always seem to get interupted right when I am about to say it," I said looking back at her.

[Chibi-chan]

Saiyaka looked up at Tach, finding that she had positioned herself so that her head was laying in his lap. She hadn't thought that she had fallen asleep, but it seemed like she had. Smiling a little, she nodded some, realizing this. It was true that everybody and everything was ready to interrupt them durring one of their moments. She just hoped that this one time, Tach would be able to say to her what he really wanted to say. If they were going to get interrupted one more time, she swore that she was going to pound the person who did it into submission.

[m1abrams]

"I have given it alot of thought, every time I had a moment to myself it was there. Saiyaka you are the first person who has ever loved and cared for me like this, you are always there...wich is why I want to spend the rest of my life with you, I want to be able to stay with you, raise a family...and grow old and die together...but I..."
I stalled, I had said almost all of it but there was still something more that I had to say, that one question, but I was still unsure if...I could protect her.
"But I dont know how well I can protect you, just know I was helpless to save you from Naraku, if it wasnt for Musou...your father you would have been taken. Wich is why I dont know if you would even want to stay with me...as my wife," I said as I looked at her lieing on my lap.
Inuyasha just about fell on his face when her herd that...still being nosey even though he was a good distance away, he was listen to everything I had said. The others all looked at Inuyasha strangely.
"Whats the matter," Sango asked.
"Uhhh...nothing, nothing at all," Inuyasha said straitening himself out again.

[Chibi-chan]

Saiyaka glared at Inuyasha and grabed a rather large stone, chucking it at Inuyasha and hitting him in the forehead. "I suggest that you not listen in!" she hissed, eyes slightly narrowed. She looked back at Tach, smiling a little as she sat up for a moment. "Tach...Don't worry about not being able to protect me...Sometimes...doing something like that can be difficult and impossible. "I don't expect protection from you," she whispered.

Inuyasha rubbed his forehead, the rock having hit him quite hard. "Geeze! I thought that all your energy was sapped! How did you manage to throw that thing so hard?!" he groaned.

[m1abrams]

"I know, but sometimes I feel so helpless. Unable to help you, wich is why I always want to be near you," I said looking to the side.
Inuyasha still rubbing his head, just kinda turned away from our conversation, knowing better to listen in now.
"I think its time we got going, the faster we get back to Keade's village, the more time we will have to relax. But the walk back their isnt going to be exactly joyful," I said remembering how far we had traveled.
"No worries there, I can help," a voice said from above.
When I looked up I caught sight of the familier yellow worm floating overhead. It was Hachi, who has for some reason sought us out on his own. He transformed from his gaint worm back to his regular form in a huge cloud of smoke. He landed down infront of Saiyaka and me.
"Hachi, where did you come from," I asked as I covered my mouth from the smoke.
"Lady Keade sent me out to find you, she said that you were in some kind of danger and that I should find you at all costs," Hachi said as he dusted himself off.
"You mean you came to find us, even though you knew it was dangerous," Miroku asked surprised by this.
"Why of course master, I could not just leave you out here," Hachi said cheerfully.
"Well I guess their is a first time for everything," Sango said just as surprised.
I smiled and breathed a sigh of relief, now we could get to Keade's village much faster and we wouldnt have to walk that whole way.
"Well I do belive that we owe Hachi a little something when we return," I said smiling.

[Chibi-chan]

Saiyaka smiled some and managed to get to her feet, the slight time she was sleeping seemed to have helped her out. She sighed some, seeming to be deep in thought about something, and it was probably clear to everybody what. She shook her head to clear thought out of her mind, or at least attempted to do so. "Well...What could we give our helpful little friend?" she asked, forcing herself to smile, despite the thoughts that were running through her mind.

[m1abrams]

"I am sure we will figure something out, I mean he does deserve it," I said walking over to him.
"You are all to kind," Hachi said as he put one of his leafs on his forhead.
And just like that Hachi transformed back into the giant floating worm, or atleast I think he was a giant floating worm. Inuyasha was the first one on, he helped up Kagome who still was lugging around Kokoru. Miroku and Sango quickly got on and Shippou wasnt far behind. Now it was just me and Saiyaka who were left standing on the ground.
"You coming or not," Inuyasha said looking over at us.
"Yeah hold your horses allready we are coming," I said as I jumped onto Hachi's back.
I reached down with my hand infront of Saiyaka and smiled at her.
"Come on, lets get out of here," I said grabbing ahold of her hand.

[Chibi-chan]

Saiyaka smiled a little and took Tach's hand. When she was up on Hatchi's back, she sighed and closed her eyes as he set off towards Kaede's hut. She decided that she'd rest a little more, laying down on Hatchi's back and curling up into a ball. The pain in her head was starting up again, but she wasn't willing to tell anybody about it. She had enough of people worrying about her, especially Tach, because as much as he worried already, he'd probably die from more worry. So instead, she kept her mouth shut about her pain, not letting it show on her face.

[m1abrams]

"Oh this feels nice, just being able to sit and relax like this," I said leaning back and closing my eyes.
"Hachi, about how long will it take to get back to Lady Keade's hut," Miroku asked leaning over to see Hachi's face.
"About a 8 hours at this speed, you should all try and get some rest," Hachi said as he floated along through the sky.
8 hours was a long time, but I guess since we had the oppertunity I should just get some sleep. I stretched then laid down on Hachi's back, more than willing to just fall asleep. It felt so good just to close my eyes, and as soon as I did I fell asleep. I guess I was more tired than I thought....
"Tach...hey Tach wake up allready," Inuyasha said as he nudged me in the side.
I slowly opened my eyes and looked up, Inuyasha was staring down at me with one of his ears twitching.
"What is it," I said sitting up.
"We are almost there, you have been sleeping this entire time," Kagome said looking at me from where she sat.
"Really, it feels like I just fell asleep," I said rubbing one of my eyes.
"You must have been really tired, with those wounds and all," Inuyasha said as he turned back around.
I looked around for a second and then found Saiyaka, she was still where I saw her when I fell asleep. I decided it would be best just to let her sleep untill we got the hut, I looked out over the edge and could see the village off in the distance. It was dark out now, but some of the villagers still had lanterns lit outside their huts.

[Red Dragon]

Blood, lots of blood. Every where. "No, not again." she whispered to the wind. This time the wind responded.. "He can't be stopped." said Kagura coming out in to the open. "You. I remember you. Wind, Caged Wind. " Inuka said to her one time 'friend'. "Look, I'm not going to beg any favores from you..." Kagure stated glaring at her. 'Typical Kagura for you.' she thought. "You want me to stop him from getting Saiyaka. I have my own blood to repay!" Inuka shouted at her. Kagura started to go but summoned her pride and said "I may be just a half demon, but at least I can try and stop Yunji from taking Saiyaka." Inuka froze, Kagura had know just where to hit her and she had struck home. "This isn't for you." she said venimously walking behind Kagura. "I know." Kagura said distantly.
"What?" Inuka asked. "Have you checked on your brat?" Kagura said glancing at Inuka for a reaction. Inuka flexed her claws, "Where did he go?" she said not looking at Kagura. "To Saiyaka's soul" she said mounting her feather. "Why do you care?" Inuka scoffed looking away. "He found your little child" she said quietly. Inuka's heart stopped. Kira, had only been across te field. She looked and in the golden wheat field she saw the spatter of red. "He's here." Inuka finished for her. "and now He will die" she said as the earth demon decended upon them reeking of Kiras blood.

[Chibi-chan]

Saiyaka sat up after a moment and looked around a little, seeming a bit lost as to where she was. She, too, had fallen asleep in hopes of getting rid of her pounding head, but her attempt sto escape it were in vain. She smiled at Tach, still hiding the fact that her head was hurting more and more by each passing second. Since this Keade was a priestess, she may be able to know how to get the stupid shard out of her mind. She knew that it had attached itself to her now.

"Saiyaka...Are you feeling alright?" Kagome asked her quite suddenly, causing Saiyaka to flinch a little. "You're looking quite pale that you normally do," she commented, going over to her and checking the half demon's temperature. "...There's no fever," she said, looking confused.

[m1abrams]

I watched Kagome and Saiyaka out of the corner of my eye, she was rather pale again. But she handt said anything so...she must be feeling better.
"Hey Inuyasha can you do me a favor," I asked looking at Inuyasha's back.
"Yeah what is it," he said anoyed that I had bothered his thinking process.
"Keep and eye on Saiyaka for me just for a little bit, I need to go take care of something," I said getting to my feet.
"And that would be," Inuyasha asked turning his head to look at me.
"Its nothing, just a little something I need to do," I said as I made my way to the edge of Hachi's back.
"Whatever," Inuyasha said returning to his thinking.
I quickly looked over at Saiyaka and gave her a reassuring nod, and then jumped off Hachi's back and fell to the ground. We were still pretty high up, but it wasnt anything I couldnt handle. When I hit the ground I kneeled no more for a second before I started off running. When I was sure I was out of sight, I sighed and then turned around. I put one hand against a tree and leaned over, it was then I felt all the pain come back again. I started to cough up alot of blood and I feel to my knees, unable to support myself any longer. I reached down and touched the wound in my stomach.
"Damdit all Naraku, those stupid little spins on you spider legs...making it hard for my body to heal," I said looking at the blood on my hands.
I had done a good job up till then hidding the fact I was bleeding, it took alot of energy but I did it succefully. Atleast Saiyaka didnt have to worry about it, it would just take a little longer for these wounds to heal, thats all. Once Kagome went back to her time and got more medical supplies, everything would be fine.
"Untill then I am just going to have to tough it out...better go find some water and wash myself off before I go back to the others. I dont want Saiyaka to see me all covered in blood again," I said as I got back to my feet and made my way to the nearest watter source.

[Chibi-chan]

Saiyaka watched as Tach jumped off Hachi's back, and she let out a sigh, looking at Kagome, who was still checking her over, as if she was some sort of doctor. "Kagome!" she snapped suddenly. "I'm fine, alright? I don't need you prodding me because I got a little bit pale," she informed the girl. She laid back down once again and put an arm over her eyes, tears running down her cheeks. "It hurts so much," she whispered to herself, restraining from smashing her head into something solid, like Miroku's staff.

[m1abrams]

"Ah water, its about time I found some," I said as I walked up to a small stream.
I knelt down infront of the stream and started to clean off the blood on my hands and the front of my Kimono. I was getting reather tired of always having to clean this darn thing, its a good thing that cloth of the fire rat dosent stain easily.
"Might as well just open up my own cloth washing place, seems like I do it enough to be an expert at it," I said sarcastically.
When I was done cleaning off my Kimono I got to my feet and started walking towards the village. Hopefully the others had gotten there allready, as I made my way through the dark forest. I could feel the eyes of someone on me, I was just praying it was Naraku...no it couldnt be him. I would have smelled him by now if it was. I stopped walking and turned around, looking for who ever it was that was watching me.
"Maybe I am just imagining things, that wouldnt surprised me," I said when I didnt see anybody.
When I turned back around and started walking again, I herd the sound of footstps, but not just of one person, but a few. And one sounded rather large like and animal, it was coming from infront of me. I stopped and waited for a moment, a little confused as to who it was, that was untill I cought sight of him.
"Sesshomaru...what the hell are you doing here," I said quite surprised by his appearance.
"Its you again," Sesshomaru said looking up at me.
"Yeah, thats what I was just thinking," I said still surprised.
The small girl Rin ran up behind Sesshomaru's leg and grabbed onto it, I looked at the girl then back at Sesshomaru. Everything inside of me was telling me to pull my sword and fight him. But no, I wasnt going too, I had gotten my revenge. I started walking forward again, and then passed Sesshomaru. He watched me with his eyes as I walked passed. When I was out of sight he and his companions continued as well.

[Chibi-chan]

Everybody seemed to have backed off from Saiyaka, seeing that she wasn't in a pleasent mood all of a sudden. As soon as they arrived there, they headed towards the hut, Sango helping the half demon walk there, seeing as she was still dazed. When she saw Keade, Saiyaka went over to the old priestess and asked her the question. "Priestess Keade...I need your help," she murmured softly, then explained everything about the jewel shard that was inside of her. "Do you know any way I can get rid of it?" she asked, eyes pleading.

[m1abrams]

"Oh well its about time, I thought I was lost there for a minute," I said as I came over a hill and caught sight of the village.
I walked down the hill on a small path, this path was similar, this is where it all really began. When that demon Sereph first started fallowing me, where me and Kokoru ran into those bandits.
"Yes, and right after that, I met Saiyaka for the first time. It wasnt exactly the best meeting ever, me transoforming and Inuyasha and her fighting. Man that seems like so long ago, so very long ago," I said as I walked down the path.
I started to remember all we had been through since the begining, that Panther demon was our first big issue. Then there was whole hot spring incident, that was the first time I saw...
"Well lets not think about that right now...maybe later," I said smiling to myself as I walked down the path.
My first meeting with Naraku, how I was injured. And Saiyaka came to my side, and then at the village with the fire rat. When we both, lost a little control of our selvs. The priestess Kikyou injuring Saiyaka, and then whole incident with Sesshomaru. Wich is where I first let Saiyaka know I loved her.
"I guess when you think about it, it hasnt been all that long since we all began to juorney. Whats it been, a month or so now, all of the traveling we have done. This has been one hell of a month," I said as I reached the first hut of the village.
I walked around that same corner I first caught sight of Inuyasha for the first time in those many years. And would you belive, it, both him and Kagome where in the same place now that they were then.
"Hey guys," I said as I walked out of the shadows.
"Tach your back, its about time, Saiyaka is inside," Kagome said smiling.
I nodded and walked into the hut, Saiyaka was there with Keade, and Miroku and Sango were in the other corner.

[Chibi-chan]

Saiyaka was looking like Keade had just told her somebody close to her had died. "There's no way at all? You're certian of this?" she asked, bitting her lip so hard that she could taste blood in her mouth. "I can't get rid of this shard? Then how am I supposed to -" she began to yell, then stopped when she saw Tach. Now he would know that something was wrong with her. She hadn't wanted him to know...

Keade shook her head some and sighed, "I'm sorry, but I can't help you. As far as I know, there's no way to extract the thing from you...Kikyou could do it, perhaps, but I most certianly can not," she told Saiyaka.

[m1abrams]

"Did I come in at a bad time," I asked a little confused by the conversation.
"Not at all, ye sit down and rest. I will go make some tea," Keade said getting up.
I walked over next to Saiyaka and sat down, still a little confused by what was going on. Saiyaka looked a rather disstressed, something was bugging her but I didnt know what it was.
"Hey Saiyaka are you feeling okay," I asked her slightly concerned.

[Chibi-chan]

Saiyaka shook her head a little bit and brough her knees up to her chest, resting her chin on them as she closed her eyes. "It...we don't know how to get the damn shard out of my head," she murmured. "And I doubt that Kikyou would help me one bit!" she scowled, looking ready to break something or another. "Priestess Keade...I have one last favor to ask of you..."

Keade looked at Saiyaka questioningly, wondering what she could want from her now. "Yes, child, what is it that you need?" she asked, heading back after she had the tea ready.

Saiyaka sighed some and scratched the back of her head nervously, "Umm...Kikyou...She did care for a man named Onigumo...Correct?" she asked, in a near whisper.

[m1abrams]

Okay now I was confused, Saiyaka knew very well that Kikyou took care of her father before he died...or before he turned into Naraku that is. So why is she asking Lady Keade this question. Sango and Miroku were sitting quietly in the corner still, they were listening in on the conversation carefully to try and discover anything about Saiyaka that may...be vital to know in the future.
"Something dosent seem right about this," I said very quietly to myself.
Lady Keade turned around and walked back over to Saiyaka, since she hadnt been traveling with us she really didnt know why we knew about Saiyaka, so she was going on the pretext that Saiyaka didnt know anything about this.
"Why yes my sister Kikyou did take care of a Bandit named Onigumo many a year ago, but why would ye want to concern yourself with such an old matter," Keade said kindly.

[Chibi-chan]

Saiyaka let out a sigh, supposing that she would have to explain herself to the old priestess. "Why? Because that man, Onigumo, was...is...my father," she said, ignoring the surprised look on the woman's face when she said this. "Would you be so kind as to bring me to the place where he was kept?" she asked, almost pleading.

Keade was looking rather shocked at this news, and slowly she gave a nod. "Of course...I don't mind it at all, but I would suggest that ye take some time to rest before we head out," she said.

[m1abrams]

I looked at Saiyaka out of the corner of my eye, she wanted to go see where he father had been. That made sense, but she should probably rest first. As should I, but something just kept me from it, I didnt feel like I could sleep anymore. It's not that I had allready slept, I was still tired. I just didnt feel like sleeping all that much at the moment.
"I think I am going to go for a quick walk," I said getting to my feet.
"Where too," Miroku asked as he watched me make my way towards the door.
"I dont know, I just need some time to think thats all," I said stopping just outside the door," Saiyaka I will be back in a little bit, you dont have to wait up for me if you dont want."
I turned and started to walk off, I didnt know where the hell I was going. I just knew that I had to go somewhere, like someting was calling me. As I walked, I noticed a large tree standing in the distance. I stopped and looked at it for a moment, there was something about that tree that seemed important enough for me to go to it.
"That must be...the tree of ages. The one that Inuyasha was pinned too," I said to myself as I made my way down the path.
As I got closer, I started to see a slight glow coming from the base of the tree. And I kept seeing what looked like snakes floating through the air. I had a pretty good idea of who it was that was there. There was no mistake about it now, it was her again.
The priestess Kikyou stood infront of the tree, putting her hand on the one part that had no bark. She closed her eyes and sighed.
"Inuyasha, this is where you were pinned, by me," She whispered to herself.
"You know this really dosent suprise me one bit, seeing you here that is," I said perched atop a branch.
Kikyou turned her head and looked at me up in the tree, I had quite the smile on my face. I was very amused that I had found her here, now maybe I could repay her for that arrow she sent into Saiyaka's chest.
"You again," Kikyou said reaching for her bow.
"I wouldnt do that if I were you, it might have some dire consequences on your behalf," I said jumping down from the branch.

[Chibi-chan]

Saiyaka sighed a bit as Tach left, a large part of her wanting him to stay there. However, she didn't stop him at all, just sat there, waiting for him to return. She found herself unable to sleep, even though sleep was something she desperately wanted as she felt her eyelids heavy. The half demon wouldn't be able to sleep until Tach was back.

Kikyou smirked a little, still having her arrow fitted in her bow. She could release it at any moment if she chose to. "And why would you say something like that? What consequences could possibly be waiting for me if I shot you right here and now?" she asked Tach, a smug look on her face.

[m1abrams]

"Because it wouldnt take much for me to ring the life right out of you thats why, when you shot that last arrow I was off guard. But now that you have my full and undevided attention, shooting an arrow would be the same as writting your death warrent," I said moving closer.
"I highly doubt a demon such as yourself could ever touch me," Kikyou said ready to let go of the arrow.
I wasnt surprised when she finally did let the arrow fly, I watched it come at me. And mearly moved to the side and let the arrow fly into the tree I was just pearched on. I smirked and bolted forward, Kikyou tried to retrieve another arrow but before she could reach to far back I picked her up off the ground by her throat. She dropped the bow and grabbed my rist with her hands.
"See now what did I say, I should just kill you know and get it over with. I'm sure it would make all our lives easier...including Inuyasha's," I said pinning her against the tree.
"Liar, get your hands off me," Kikyou said looking down at me trying to breath.
"Oh dont worry I am going to let you go becuase I have a little favor to ask of you, but I swear as soon as you try anything, I will squeze that pretty little head of yours right off," I said loosening my grip.
Kikyou just kinda nodded slighty and I let go, letting her fall to the ground. I backed away and allowed her to catch her breath, she held her throat and caughed a few times and then looked at me.
"Now what do you want from me," Kikyou asked still holding her throat.
"I want you to help a friend of mine, she has a jewel shard stuck in her body, and I need it removed," I said firmly.
"And if I decide not to help," Kikyou said getting to her feet.
"Well thats easy, then I kill you. Either you help her, or I kill you, its your choice Kikyou...what will it be" I said with a slight grin on my face.

[Chibi-chan]

Kikyou's eyes narrowed and she rubbed at her throat, not liking to be treated in such a manner. "...Who is this friend of yours? No doubt it's Saiyaka...And where exactly is the shard located? I may just have to kill her in order to get it out," she stated, not seeming to care. Saiyaka was just another reminder of her past, nothing more.

Saiyaka sighed and got up, heading outside. It was taking Tach far too long to come back if he was just going for a walk. Then again, when ever he just went someplace for a short while, he'd end up running into something. "Please hurry back," she whispered, sitting outside and waiting for his return.

[m1abrams]

"That again would end up in your own death, so the only way for us all to walk away from this in one peice, you best do as I say," I said walking up to her again.
I reached down and grabbed her rist tightly and started to drag her off. But as I did she grabbed her bow from the ground again and proceeded to smash me upside the head with it. I turned me hear around, my eye twitching.
"That was not a smart move," I said throwing her rist away from me.
Before Kikyou could do much me I quickly punched her in the stumach, she fell over forward unconsious. As I looked at her laying on the ground I could only wonder why it was this easy.
"Well I guess you wanted to do this the hard way," I said picking her up and putting her over my shoulder.
Inuyasha still sat outside Keade's hut with Kagome by his side, he was probably asleep. That was untill he caught Kikyou's scent. His eyes shot open and he looked down the street, I was there carrying the unconsious prietess over my shoulder. Inuyasha got to his feet and was about to run to me.
"Just keep put Inuyasha, I dont need you getting into this as well," I said walking passed him.
I could see Saiyaka waiting outside the hut, but as I was watching her, Inuyasha had ignored me and was running up to me. I looked back at him and sent a death glare, he stopped as fast as he could.
"I said stay put, now what about that dont you understand. This whole thing is none of your concern, now go back and sit down with Kagome, she is the one you should be more concerned about now, not this long since dead priestess," I said sternly as I walked passed him.

[Chibi-chan]

When she saw Tach with an unconsious Kikyou, Siayaka stood up and went over to him, past Inuyasha, a confused look on her face. "Why the hell have you brought HER here?" she asked, glaring at Kikyou with extreme distaste. "It would have been better if you brought here back here dead...Not that she's really alive persay..." she grumbled, crossing her arms. It was clear that Saiyaka really hated Kikyou for some reason or another.

Inuyasha shot her a death glare just like the one that Tach had given him. "If she ends up dead, I know who to blame it on, then!" he hissed, trying to be quiet so that he wouldn't wake up Kagome.

[Red Dragon]

Spitting out blood that had choked her. So, it begins... Yunji would go for Saiyaka. She sneered, he'd be limping as he went. Thier fight had been long and to her surprise Kagura had helped her, just like before when she had been inprisoned by Naraku. Back then Kagura had helped but in the end had only tried to kill her. Kagura was some thing else. She lay bleeding on the ground infrunt of Inuka. Lifting her up was no chore, she weighed nothing at all. Yunji had some of Kaguras blood in him now, to complete his transformation he would need some thing more purefrom Narakus viens. He needed Sayaka, as Narakus daughter she was as pure as he could get. Inuka shuddered. The wind bit at her own cuts.
Inuka took to the sky. Kagome might know what to do with her. She tried some of her wind magic and stopped Kaguras bloods flow preventing it from draining her. Catching Saiyakas sent she followed it hoping to find her alive.

[m1abrams]

"You need that shard removed right, well then if she is the only one who can do it we might as well use her while she is still useful," I said laying Kikyou down inside the hut.
"But still, you could have just asked her," Miroku said looking at her.
"I did, but she chose not to co-operate with me," I said smiling at Miroku.
"That smile of his scares me," Sango said quietly to Miroku.
Miroku nodded and everyone watched the unconsious priestess, no one more closely than Inuyasha, who I had told to wait outside, but he was peaking in through the window. I knew he was there but I didnt want to bother myself with hurting him at the moment. Kikyou started to stur in her sleep, and then her eyes opened, the first person she caught sight of was me. She quickly sat up and went into a defensive pose, she started to back off untill she bumped into Miroku. She looked back at him, he had a general disspleased look on his face, I dont think he liked her anymore than I did.
"Why have your brought me here," Kikyou demanded looking back at me.
"Have you forgotten allready, damd the dead really have bad memories I'm telling you," I said shaking my head.
"I'm not going to help her, even if you kill me I rather die anyways," Kikyou said getting to her feet.
"Be careful what you wish for, it might come true one day," I said growing angry with her attitude.
"Now Tach you musnt be so harsh with her, if you want her to help us you must learn to be more paciant, and less violent," Miroku said looking over at me.
"You could be right Miroku, maybe I should just...ask her nicely," I said sighing," Kikyou could you please help my dear Saiyaka."
The whole statement was very saracastic sounding, I was just screwing around again. I didnt want to be nice to her, I didnt care if I had to kill her. She was going to help Saiyaka wether she liked it or not.
"Thats not what I meant," Miroku said shaking his head at me.

[Chibi-chan]

Saiyaka glared at Kikyou, eyes narrowed. "Why would I want her to help me?" she asked, crossing her arms. "I don't want to have anything to do with this priestess...I would rather the stupid jewel shard tear me appart from the inside out rather than have her help me!"

Kikyou let out a cold laugh and shook her head, looking at Tach. "You see? She despises me as much as I do her," she stated, glancing towards Saiyaka and giving her a rather unpleasent smile. "If she doesn't want my help, then I'll gladly not give it," she said.

[m1abrams]

"No now here is the thing that you both dont understand, neither of you have a choice in the matter," I said smiling.
"Wait, you mean you are going to force Saiyaka to have Kikyou take that shard out," Miroku said quite astonished.
I just nodded my head still smiling, I was determined to get that damded jewel shard out of her head weather she liked it or not. And the only way I would stop trying, is if I knew for sure there wasnt a way to help her. I didnt want this thing hurting her, I wasnt going to let it.
"Okay Kikyou, listen here, I am going to ask you nicely one last time. Take this jewel shard out of Saiyaka's head, and help ease her suffering," I asked as nicely as I possible could considering who it was I was talking too.
"Why should I releive her suffering, when I suffer because of her every day. Her father is responsible for my death, and I am never going to forgive her or Naraku for that," Kikyou said staring strait through me.
"Well if thats the way you feel about it fine, I will just kill you," I said as I pulled out my sword.
"Now Tach hang on a minute, you dont seriously plan to kill her right here do you," Miroku said getting to his feet.
"Why not, I dont have a problem with it, do any of you," I asked looking at everyone in the hut.

[Chibi-chan]

"I don't have a problem with killing her, either!" Saiyaka hissed. "I'd rather suffer from this stupid shard rather than owe her something for helping me," she muttered, crossing her arms. "If it wasn't for that damn priestess, none of this would have happened! None of it!" she yelled. Then...that would also mean that I wouldn't have met Tach...Would I be alright with...damn! No matter what, I still owe her!

"Nobody is going to kill her," Inuyasha suddenly said, looking at Kikyou. It was surprising that he really hadn't said a word to her yet. "Either you accept her help, or I'll force you to accept it. I don't think you're going to like my ways of forcing you..."

[Red Dragon]

Inuka fluttered down to the ground with Kagura. "You like playing hero don't you?" Kagura saif weakly. "You're one to talk! Now shut up till we get to Kagome and Saiyaka." replied Inuka. "So your just out of danger and you head right back in to it again, you are as stupid as Inuyasha." she said unwilling to be outdone. "I'll take that as a complement" Inuka siad shortly entering the village. The residents shut thier windows and hid turning teh place in to a ghost town. "Nice." mutterd Kagura.

[m1abrams]

"Inuyasha back off, I'm warning you," I said looking at Inuyasha through the corner of my eye.
"Not a chance, I am not going to let you just kill Kik..."
Before Inuyasha could finish his sentance I pinned him against the wall, the tip of blade pressed against his chest. My eyes narrowed and my head lowered a little, Inuyasha had the most surprised look on his face.
"Let me remind you, I still have a scar on my chest from where you ran your blade through me, dont make me have to repay the favor," I said sternly turning my blade slightly.
"I wont let you kill her Tach, even if you have to kill me," Inuyasha said just as serious.
"So you rather die and leave Kagome to cry over you," I said my hand shaking slightly.
"No I...Dont bring Kagome into this, it has nothing to do with her," Inuyasha said his eyes widening.
"It has everything to do with her, I told you to stay out of this but now that you have gone and barged in like this you are her a very big part of it. It was hard enough for me to bring Kikyou here in the first place, not only becuase of the history between her and Saiyaka, but becuase of the impact it would have on Kagome. You have chosen a path Inuyasha, and that path is to stay with Kagome, now stick with it," I yelled loud enough to awake Kagome.
"Despite that fact I can not allow you to kill Kikyou in cold blood, you would be no better than Naraku," Inuyasha yelled back.
My hand quickly let go of my sword and I backed off, Inuyasha was right, what the hell was I doing. I was seriously going to kill her right here and now, without a second thought. I looked around the room, Sango and Miroku both had their hands on their weapons. Lady Keade had tucked her hand into the next room and had her hand on her bow. And when I looked out the window, Kagome had her bow clutched in hand, an arrow allready drawn. I was just like him, I was acting no better than Naraku.

[Chibi-chan]

Saiyaka scowled at these words, eyes narrowing quite dangerously. "It's not the same!" she hissed. "Tach is nothing like Naraku...Besides, that woman is already dead," she yelled, pointing at Kikyou. "She has no right being here, walking around as if she were a living person again!" she accused.

The priestess smirked a little and shook her head. "If he were to kill me in cold blood, he would be like Naraku, and you know it," she taunted, sounding quite amused by all of this.

"Cold blood, huh? What blood? There's none that's running through you right now...You're just an animated doll, taking souls from those who died...It's pathetic!" Saiyaka snapped.

[m1abrams]

I looked down at my hands, they were shaking. What have I become, this was all making way to much sense. I was willing to kill someone without thinking, even if she was dead allready it was still the same. She would have died right infront of me, and I bet you in the state I am in I would have laughed.
"No they are right, I have become cold hearted. I was willing to kill her right here without and second thought, and I would have enjoyed it too. The fact of me getting rid of someone like you who has only caused so much pain within our group, while I was here to see it or not...is far too tempting. You should count yourself lucky, that these people were here today to smack some sense into me," I said trying to smile.
"Tach I didnt mean it in that way, I was just trying to..."
"No Inuyasha you were right, I am becoming just like Naraku. I mean look at everyone, you are all ready to strike at me as soon as I made a move," I said looking at Sango and Miroku who were still grasping their weapons.
Sango and Miroku looked at eachother and then at their hands, they slowly let go of them and sighed. The looked at me with shame, like they had betrayed me, but it was the other way around. I had betrayed them.
"Kikyou you can leave if you wish, I am not going to force you to do anything. If its any consolation I am sorry for what I have done, I was mearly concerned for Saiyaka. Its hard to see someone you love suffer, but I am sure you are very well aware of that," I said as I sat down in the corner and put my head down.

[Chibi-chan]

Saiyaka shook her head, going over to Tach and wrapping her arms around him, holding him tight. "That's...That's not true," she whispered to him. "You're not cold hearted at all! If you were, then you wouldn't be able to care about me...let alone love me," she told him. "You're not a bad person for thinking the way you just were...I think that way about her all the time, and I'm not a bad person...am I?" she asked.

Kikyou watched the two, then turned and walked off. "I'll have to think on what I'll do," she said, not looking back. "You'll know my desision by tomorrow," she informed them, disappering into the darkness.

[m1abrams]

I reached up and grabbed Saiyaka's hand, I wanted to belive the words she was saying. But were they really true, was I a good person. When Kikyou left, I payed no attention to it, I didnt care that she was gone anymore. I put my lowered my head even futher and clutched Saiyaka's hand even tighter.
"Never doubt that you are a good person Saiyaka, never doubt it one bit. You are incapable, of doing wrong in my eyes," I said reasuring her.
And that she wasnt, she could never do anything that would make me cross at her. Not at all, she was a good person, she was nothing like me. She said she thought the same way about Kikyou, but did she ever just feel like running her blade through her just to see what it felt like, to just see her blood pooling on the ground.
"Tach I'm sorry about what I said, you arent like Naraku, its just that the look in your eye's, it looked like you were...emotionless," Inuyasha said stepping closer.

[Chibi-chan]

Saiyaka twitched a little as she heard Inuyasha comming closer. She glared at the half dog demon, giving him one of her most deadly looks. "Don't you dare come any closer to him!" she hissed. "How dare you even open your mouth, after the false things you've just said! You know as well as I do that that woman doesn't belong here...You make me sick, Inuyasha!" she scolded, her eyes glowing red for a moment. "You have probably gotten that look in your eyes before as well...Everybody gets it, no matter how pure of heart they are!"

Turning back to Tach, she brought her hand to her lips and kissed it. "You're not a bad person...You're not...No matter what thoughts were running through your head just now," Saiyaka told him. "Don't let what that idiot mutt said get to you...He knows nothing..."

[m1abrams]

I just nodded my head slightly, trying to accept her words. But I still had a doubt in my mind, about if I was or not. I finally picked my head up and looked at Inuyasha, he was still standing there.
"Dont be mad at Inuyasha, if there is anyone to blame for all this than it is me. I brought Kikyou here, it was my idea, my mistake. All I was trying to do was help you Saiyaka, but I should have known better. Inuyasha I should be apolgizing to you and Kagome most of all," I said as I slowly got to my feet.
"You dont have to be sorry," Kagome said walking inside.
"Yes I do, that priestess, even though she is dead she brings so much pain to both of you. I should have thought more about that before I brought her here," I said as I walked towards the door again," Its a nice night out, I think I will go find a place to sleep outside. I wouldnt mind that at all."
I walked through the door, leaving everyone behind. But hoping that Saiyaka would fallow me, I didnt really want to be alone. I just didnt want to bother Inuyasha and Kagome any more. I had allready caused enough trouble for one night, I am sure they didnt want me hanging around.

[Chibi-chan]

Saiyaka didn't want Tach to go off alone, so she followed right after him, not looking back at Inuyasha or Kagome. "Tach...Please don't doubt what I've said to you," she whispered, her voice breaking up as tears reached her eyes. "I love you, and I don't want you to think badly of yourself," she murmured. "You are a good person, you are...Don't you think otherwise, or I may have to knock more sense into you," she told him, her voice still in a whisper. It was difficult for her to really talk any louder, she felt. "I appreciate what you did for me, and you shouldn't be sorry about it," she added, clutching his hand.

[m1abrams]

"Thank you, I try and help, but sometimes I just make things worse. I guess I have a nack for screwing things up like that," I said smiling.
I walked along the road that led to the edge of the village, I looked over at Saiyaka. I was glade she came after me.
"Thanks for coming with me, I really didnt want to be by myself tonight. I've been alone enough in my life allready, to have someone like you with me. Makes me feel like I matter again, that I am important to someone," I said to her as I held her hand tightly.
As we walked out of the village, I was at a complete loss as to what we were doing out here. Then I remembered the fact I was dead tired, it was more or less early in the morning now. But I still wanted to get some sleep, I bet if they let me I could sleep for a whole week. When we came to the side of a small hill that looked over the village I sat myself down on the ground. I could see sunlight starting to leak over the mountains in the distance.

[Chibi-chan]

"Well, I guess that we can get at least a little bit of sleep in," Saiyaka said with a smile, looking at Tach. "You matter more than you may think, Tach," she told him, leaning her head against his shoulder and sighing some and she closed her eyes, blocking out the light from the upcomming sun. "You know that I'll be by you if you want me to," she whispered tiredly, yawning a little. "I want to be beside you always..."

[m1abrams]

I herd Saiyaka's words, just before my eyes shut and I fell asleep. I was out like a light, and nothing was going to be waking me up for a good long while. I was so tired I had gone and fallen asleep sitting up. Not that I hadnt done that before but still, I was going to have a back ache when I woke up.

"Do you think maybe you were a little to harsh with him Inuyasha," Kagome asked.
Inuyasha didnt say anything, he knew that what he said was wrong, but his ego was getting in the way of him admiting it.
"Oh Inuyasha you can be so stuborn some times," Kagome hissed as she sat down.
Sango and kagome were kinda taking turns on taking care of Kokoru who for some reason would just not wake up no matter what they did. She must have been under Naraku's control for alot longer than we had inticipated.
"I wonder where Tach and Saiyaka went off to," Sango asked as she looked at the sleeping Kokoru.
"Well I am sure Tach just wanted a moment alone with her, they never seem to when we are traveling," Miroku said half asleep.
"Yeah your right, they are very nice couple you know that. They do care for eachother alot, and you can see both of them have alot of love for one another. I wouldnt doubt it if they got married one of these days," Sango said slightly day dreaming.
"Feh, he allready asked her," Inuyasha blurted out.
"What you mean he had allready proposed to her, when did that happen," Sango asked quite surprised.
"They other day, just before Hachi came," Inuyasha said opening his eyes.
"And why didnt you tell us this any sooner," Kagome shouted yanking on one of Inuyasha's ears.
"Becuase Saiyaka pelted me in the head with a rock that's why," Inuyasha shouted back.

[Chibi-chan]

Saiyaka stirred awake after a few hours worth of sleep. Her head was resting on Tach's chest, her back leaning gently against his side. She smiled a bit before she slowly got up. Something had awoken her, but what was it? The half demon found out when she heard the footsteps again and looked around, spotting Kikyou. She glanced back at Tach, who was still asleep, and she carefully moved away from him, careful not to wake him up.

Kikyou watched Saiyaka, seeming to be waiting for her to come. When she did, the priestess walked off, knowing that Saiyaka would follow. The two of them got to a clearing a good distance away from Tach, though Saiyaka didn't look too thrilled to be so far from him. "Don't worry, I've decided to help you, not kill you," Kikyou said with a cruel laugh.

"Hmph...What brought about this change of...do you even have a heart?" Saiyaka asked, smirking a little. She knew that she shouldn't be such a difficult person to somebody who claimed was going to help her, but this was Kikyou. It was different, in her oppinion.

[Red Dragon]

Inuka wandered around the village following her nose. It was getting dark and the moon was only a sliver in the sky. Inuka shuddered at the thought of another day as a hanyou. For now her eyes picked up the figure of a priestess coming along the path. Inuka hid. She saw the witch Kikyo walk past with a thoughtful look in her eye. "They must be in that house" said Kagura as they steppedout of the shadows.
There were voices inside, she picked out Inuyasha's imediatly. Though he didn't know it, it was much like Fathers. 'thier father, not mine' she told herself. She didn't want it to be true but she had prepared herself for his rejection and torment. Inuka slipped in through the door and greeted them.

Kagome noticed Kagura. "What happened?" "The stupid thing saved my life." stated Inuka. "Will you help me save hers?" she pleded. Inuyasha stood up and started toward her and Kagura. "I'll help you alright. I'll help her right in to the afterlife!" he said drawing Fathers harmful fang. Kagome looked slightly inclined to agree with him, but she didn't agree with him methods. "Sit boy." Kagome ordered coming closer to the pair. Inuyasha ate dirt and came back up sputtering. Fathers fang was transformed now and Inuka backed up a pace. "Kagome, its a trap, she's one of Narakus spys!" Inuyasha said pushing her away from them. Inuka bristled. He swung his sword at them but he ended up waving a blunt rusty blade at them insted.

They all stared. "Baka." called Inuka. "Father made that sword to protect his mate and family." Inuka said grabing Kagura a blanket. "Even a daughter that wasn't his own." she finished rising up off her knees.

[m1abrams]

I slowly opened my eyes when I noticed that Saiyaka was no longer leaning against my back. I rubbed my eyes and then got to my feet, it was well into the morning now. I stretched and then started to sniff around, knowing that Saiyaka could not be too far off. When I picked up her scent I started to make my way in that direction.
"Now why are you wondering off into the woods at this time of morning," I siad to myself still half asleep.
It was then that I picked up the scent of Kikyou, it was close by, and going in the same direction that Saiyaka's was. My eyes shot open and I was now fully awake.
"Damd, how did she get Saiyaka without me noticing," I said as I took off into the woods.

[Chibi-chan]

"I will choose to ignore that comment," Kikyou snapped, looking at Saiyaka. "I can get that shard out, but considering the position it's in, it could be a little risky," she stated, waiting for Saiyaka's reaction.

"Risky?" Saiyaka echoed, blinking a little bit. "What the hell do you mean by that? I could die if you remove it or something?" she questioned.

"No...Your mind could be slightly damaged, you may see illusions, forget things that are important to you...Or you could be cast off into a deep sleep for a short time...A number of things could happen if I were to remove that shard..." Kikyou stated. "It's your choice on if you want to take the chance or not," she said bluntly.

"Any of that could happen? Even all of it?" Saiyaka asked and sighed a little when Kikyou confirmed it as a yes. "Damn...How am I supposed to go along with that?!"

[m1abrams]

"Damd next time I wonder into these woods I need to take a map with me," I scowled as I ran through the thick forest.
I could tack Saiyaka and Kikyou's scent no problem, but these woods were so dense I had to keep going around certain objects making it take alot longer than I had wished. When I finally found a strait path I kicked myself into high gear and ran towards them as fast as I could.
"There they are," I said smiling as I entered a clearing.
I was moving so fast when I tried to stop I skided across the drist kicking up a cloud of it as I went. I reached around and grabbed the dirt with my hand and stopped myself. I had spun all the way around and I looked up at Kikyou and Saiyaka, Kikyou turned her head and looked at me with a very...dull look on her face.
"What not happy to see me," I said straitening myself out.
Kikyou didnt say anything and her expression didnt change, I slouched and sighed.
"It was suppose to be a joke, you know funny..haha," I said sarcastically.

[Chibi-chan]

Kikyo still didn't look amused by this, and she shook her head, ignoring him as she looked at Saiyaka. "So...What is your answer going to be?" she asked, waiting rather impatiently for the girl to make up her mind and answer.

Saiyaka bit her lip some and looked to Tach, then at Kikyou giving a small nod. "Yes...I'll take the risks, even though there's about a million of them," she whispered, looking back at Tach. There was no point in telling him the risks, getting him worried. She hated to have him worry about her. "Do it," she said to Kikyou.

"Very well, it's your decision, remember," Kikyou reminded, walking up to Saiyaka an placing a palm on her forehead. "This will hurt, mind you..." she smirked, her hand glowing with pink light. She laughed to herself as she began to get the shard out, and Saiyaka began to cry out. This pain was going to be much worse than any of the headachs that she had been having.

[m1abrams]

When Kikyou put her hand on Saiyaka's forhead and it started to glow, I understood what was going one. But when Saiyaka started to cry out in pain, I couldnt help but run to her.
"No, you must not come any closer, if she is disturbed while I am removing the shard than there is a good chance she will loose her memory compleatly," Kikyou snapped at me.
"But she is in pain, stop it now," I yelled back coming closer.
"Its too late, if you want me to remove this shard than you will stay put," Kikyou demanded.
I stopped moving, but it was hard, I wanted to make her stop hurting her but if it was going to help then I didnt have much of a choice. I could see the look on Saiyaka's face all to clearly, it was horrid. She was in so much pain I could almost feel it.

[Chibi-chan]

Saiyaka practiacally was screaming bloody murder, and she dug her nails into Kikyou's hand, though it wasn't something she would be doing if she wasn't in so much pain. "It hurts...It hurts!" she yelled, digging in more with her nails.

Kikyou bit her lip as Saiyaka dug into her hand, almost stopping what she was doing. "This is what you wanted, you foolish child!" the priestess snapped, looking ready to just kill her right then and there. "Now let go of me, or I may just stop where I am, and it's only going to make things worse!"

[m1abrams]

"Thats it enough, pull it out of her allready," I yelled quite angry.
Kikyou glanced at me and then back at Saiyaka, she slowly pulled her hand away from her forhead and with it, I could see the jewel shard appear. It was floating in mid air and Kikyou just let it sit there. When it was far enough out Kikyou grasped her hand around the shard and the glowing stopped. I quickly ran up to Saiyaka and wrapped my arms around her body in case she collapsed.
"Its done," Kikyou said looking at the shard.
I looked at Saiyaka and then at Kikyou, she had that same cold look on her face as before. I mustered up all my will to say these next words.
"Kikyou...thank you," I said rather hesitently.
"Dont force yourself to thank me, I know you still despise me. As I despise you and that girl. I think i am going to hold onto this jewel shard for awhile, it may come in handy," Kikyou said as she turned to leave.
"Wait, what do you plan on doing with it," I asked not liking her tone.
"You will see in due time," Kikyou said as she walked further off.
"Man she creeps me out," I said clinging to Saiyaka.

[Chibi-chan]

Saiyaka, looked at Tach, her eyes rather blank and expressionless. She opened her mouth to say something, but before she could do so, darkness overcame her and he eyes closed. The tears that had come to her eyes, due to the pain that she had just experienced, rolled down her face. She knew that she wasn't going to be waking up for a long while, and wished that she could have told Tach before she feel unconsious.

[Red Dragon]

Inuyasha racked his brain. She was some how familliar but, then again not. She did have her pride and she was trying to repay her debt to Kagura... Even though she was a whole demon, she didn't act like one. "whats wrong with you, you don't act like a demon" said Inuyasha shiething his tetsuiga (sp?)

Inuka sighed, "I was found by Fa, your father in the forest and was raised by him. He kept talking about you... His little Inuyasha." Inuka tried not to get choked up. "A monk that had fought him cursed me for his revenge, with a human heart" Inuka finished turning away to regain her composure. "you sound just like him" she whispered to herself but the sound was not missed by Inuyasha's ears.

[m1abrams]

"Saiyaka...Saiyaka wake up...Wake up!" I yelled as I shook her.
Kikyou turned her head around and looked at me, tears were weling up in my eyes. When I felt Kikyou's eyes land apon me I looked up at her, and expression of complete hopelessness in my eyes. Kikyou for a moment was effected by the look in my eyes, that same look she has seen before. But before she let herself get caught up in it she turned around again.
"Kikyou," she herd me say from behind her.
I had gotten to my feet, tears streaming down my face. But my eyes were no longer that of a hopeless soul, instead they were filled with rage. Enough rage to frighten even the dead priestess Kikyou.
"I informed her of the risks, and she decided to go through with it anyways. So dont blame me for her stupidity," Kikyou said as she began to walk again.
"You emotionless wench!" I yelled as I darted at her.
Kikyou spun around and attempted to push me back with a shield that she had constructed over night to keep me from touching her again. But I pulled my blade from its sheath and cut right through it. I was in a blade rage, and there was nothing that could stop me. I stopped right infront of Kikyou and my blade went flying up, I could feel the blade tear through her flesh and come out the other side. Kikyou took a few steps back, holding onto where her arm used to be, and would you beleive it. She did bleed, a black oil type blood. It leaked to the ground from where her arm once was. When I looked back at her my eyes glowed red with anger, I was still out of control. I was reverting back into my full demon form becuase of the anger. I walked closer to Kikyou, the black blood of hers still covering it.
"Stay back, dont you come any closer," Kikyou said as she backed away.
"You took her away from me, and now you will DIE!!"
I raised my sword into the air and it came down once again, the black blood flying through the air as my blade stopped.

[Chibi-chan]

Inuyasha stared and looked like he was ready to answer Inuka, but he caught Kikyou's scent yet again and then his eyes widened as he somehow knew that Tach had gone to demon form. Then he was off, quick as lighting, towards the area of the forest where Kikyou, Tach, and Saiyaka were. "Kikyou?!" he called out, eyes wide with fear as something else caught his nose. "Blood?! Dammit! If she's dead..." he whispered to himself, breaking off his thoughts as he arrived at the scene.

[m1abrams]

My head slowly turned around and looked at him, the look of complete shock on his face. My eyes were still red, my full demon form showing its full anger, but despite that. I still had tears running down the side of my face. Inuyasha looked at me, then Saiyaka, then at the black blood on the ground. And the lifeless arm that Kikyou left behind, before I watched her limp away. A trail of blood led off into the forest, I hadnt killed her after all. Even in my full demon form I hadnt killed her, but I left her with a very strong reminder, both with her arm. And the huge cut I know left across her left eye, in the same place I had mine.
"Tach what have you done, where is Kikyou," Inuyasha demanded.
"I dont know," I said as I walked towards him.
"What did you do with her, if you killed her I swear I will never forgive you," Inuyasha siad pulling out Tetsuiga.
"I didnt kill her, I mearly left her with a few reminders," I said as I knelt down next to Kikyous arm.
I reached down and opened the hand, and retreived the jewel shard from it. I held it up and looked at it, it was small like the others. Something so small caused all this trouble, it should be destroyed. But no, I need to give this to Kagome, maybe she can use it to help Saiyaka this time.
"A jewel shard, you dont mean its the one Saiyaka had in her head," Inuyasha asked looking at the shard.
I walked passed Inuyasha, I put my sword back in its sheath and knelt down next to Saiyaka. She was still allive, but mearly asleep. I put the jewel shard in my pocket and picked Saiyaka up.
"We need to head back to the village," I said walking off.

[Chibi-chan]

Inuyasha looked at the blood again before he followed after Tach, a rather angery look on his face. He hated the fact that Tach had hurt Kikyou. "...What's with Saiyaka, anyway?" he asked, crossing his arms and looking at the deathly still girl. "She's not dead, so why isn't she waking up...With so much blood in the air, you would think that she'd be awake," he scowled. "Then again, it was Kikyou...She's probably laughing inside, I'm willing to bet!" the half demon accused.

[m1abrams]

"Shut it Inuyasha, I dont need to hear your crap right now," I said turning my head and looking at him.
"Well its the truth, she is probably so happy that you hurt her that is why she isnt waking up," Inuyasha yelled back.
"Inuyasha Kikyou tricked us, she purposly put Saiyaka into this sleep. Now why on earth are you defending her, she is not even of the living. But you insist that she is still a good peson, I saw the evil in her today Inuyasha. She is out to stop us, not help us. You are still so damded blinded by the fact that Kikyou was killed by Naraku that you havnt given a thought to whether she is working for him, she has probably had numerous chances to kill Naraku and end this whole thing, but has she ever," I yelled as I stopped infront of Inuyasha.
"How dare you insinuate that Kikyou would work for Naraku after what Naraku has done to bother me and her," Inuyasha yelled back in a rage.
"Well if not for Naraku then she is at the least not helping you any, remember that run in you had with that being named Kaguya," I shouted sending Inuyasha a nasty glare.
"What, Kaguya...but how did you know about that," Inuyasha asked in shock.
"Trust me I know, but I am sure you would be interested to know. That Kikyou was dirrectly responsable for Kaguya being released," I said a little more calmly," I sat there in the shadows...and watched Kikyou hand over the stone bowl of Budha to Kagura, I saw it with my own eyes Inuyasha. She is not helping us any, she is out to stop us."

[Chibi-chan]

"You liar!" Inuyasha hissed, putting a hand on the hilt of the Tetsaiga. "How dare you accuse her of doing that...It can't be true," he growled. Once again, Kikyou was blinding him. "How about, when that little wench of yours wakes up, I trim off one of HER limbs!" he threatened, pulling out the blade and pointing it at Saiyaka, who still slept in Tach's arms. "How about I remove her leg or an arm like you did with Kikyou?!" he snapped.

[m1abrams]

I slowly put Saiyaka down on the ground leaning her against a tree, I was hoping she was sleeping peacfully, and she wasnt reliving her past wich hating so much. I turned around and looked at Inuyasha, his blade now pointed at me. I reached and grabbed my sword, slowly pulling the blade out. The sun shined against the folded steel as I put the tip of the blade towards the ground.
"Inuyasha, I dont want to fight you, but if you try and hurt Saiyaka in any way. I wont hesitate," I said getting ready for him to attack me.
"Take back what you said about Kikyou then," Inuyasha snapped.
"I can't, becuase its the truth...and you just need to accept it," I said getting my sword ready.
"I wont belive it, you liar!"
Inuyasha jumped at me, the tetsuiga held high in the air. I stod still watching him come at me, when Inuyasha swung his blade down at my I simply brought my sword up and caught his. Inuyasha used all his might to push down on me, trying to break my blade. But it was not meant to be, two blades made from Totosia were never ment to meat like this. Inuyasha jumped back but quickly jumped forward again, his blade coming from the ground this time. I jumped into the air and Inuyasha passed right underneither me.
"Your too slow Inuyasha," I said turning around in mid air.
When Inuyasha finally stopped and turned around I was right up in his face, I had spun my blade around and had it reached all the way around me. I swung the blade with such force that when the blunt end hit Inuyasha that he lost grip on the Tetsuiga and it flew to the ground. Inuyasha flew backwards and skidded to a hault on the ground. He slowly got up and looked at me, a small amount of blood coming from his mouth.
"What I told you about Kikyou is true, I am sorry if its hard for you to accept but its the truth. I realize that you and Kikyou were once really close, no...I realize that at one time you two were in love. But that was over 50 years ago Inuyasha, and since then you have found someone else...that I know you love, just as much as I love Saiyaka," I said as I sheathed my sword.

[Chibi-chan]

Inuyasha glared at Tach, then placed his blade back into the sheath, scowling. "I don't believe you for one moment...not for a moment, Tach!" he hissed, then looked at Saiyaka for a minute or two before heading back to the hut without another word.

Kikyou, in truth, didn't really go all that far. She held the stub where her arm once was, scowling as the black blood kept on flowing, no matter how much she tried to stop it. "This is what I get for helping the little brat!" she hissed.

[m1abrams]

"Stop Inuyasha!" I yelled to him.
Inuyasha stopped and turned his head and glared back at me, he was looking for any good reason to attack me again.
"You want proof that I am telling your the truth, than so be it. I will give your proof, this will finally prove to you that what I say not a lie," I said bringing my blade back up.
My blade still had small amounts of the black blood that seeped from the wounds I gave Kikyou. I put the blade up to my arm and placed it firmly atop it, and then slowly cut myself with it. Inuyasha looked a tad disgusted with this, but what he saw next made him nearly be sick. The black blood mixed with my own, and before I could help it, my arm started to smolder. I reached over and gripped it tightly, trying to keep it from spreading.
"You see what I mean, the blood that comes from her veins is not that of a pure preistess. But that of an evil incarnation, she may have had good intentions at first, but now she is nothing but a vengful soul wondering the world of the living looking to take you to hell with her. And if she can't take you then she will kill all of us just to get her way, she dosent wish good apon everyone. As I have herd her say before, she despises every living creature in this or any world," I said as I tried to fight the pain in my arm.
"I...didnt know, it can't be. She would never try and hurt someone like that," Inuyasha said walking towards me.
"Its true Inuyasha, if I were lieing to you, then why would I poison myself like this. This black blood will eat through my arm unless I get it purified by a true preistess, one that is pure of heart. Inuyasha the only priestess here that truly loves you and can save my arm, is Kagome," I said falling my knee's.
"Tach, hang on, I will get both of you back to the hut," Inuyasha said as I fell to the ground.
Inuyasha finally understood what I was trying to say, he now knew the truth about Kikyou. As painful as it was to know, he could finally let go of the true priestess Kikyou, who died over 50 years ago.

[Chibi-chan]

As Tach's arm filled with pain, Saiyaka gave a quick jerk and let out a soft and pained sound. Her arm, the arm same as the arm Tach cut, twitched. She still didn't wake up, but it seemed that her body hurt just in the same way that Tach's did somehow.

Inuyasha, who was helping Tach to his feet, looked to Saiyaka. His eyes widened a little as he looked between the two. He couldn't carry them both at once. "She'll be fine here for now," he said to Tach, knowing that Tach would rather have him take Saiyaka back. He lifted Tach and began to head back to the hut, leaving Saiyaka behind. "I promise I'll get her as soon as I get you to Kagome!"

[m1abrams]

"I trust that you will Inuyasha," I said as he carried me to the hut on his back.
As stupid as it looked Inuyasha made his way back to the hut as quickly as he could, when he finally landed infront of the door and barged in, he nearly knocked over Shippou who was having a large cup of ramen.
"What happened," Sango asked getting to her feet.
"No time to explain, Kagome can you take care of him while I go back," Inuyasha said putting me down on the ground infront of Kagome.
"Yes but whats going on," Kagome asked a little confused by all of this.
"I'll explain everything when I get back, just take care of him," Inuyashed yelled back to them as he left.
When Inuyasha came back and found Saiyaka still in the same place as before, he walked up to her. But before he picked her up to take her back, he hesitated. Inuyasha looked up into the woods, he could still smell Kikyou.
"Maybe if I go after her I can...No, it isnt right, not after what Tach showed me. She isnt the Kikyou I knew," Inuyasha said shaking his head.
Inuyasha bent down and grabbed up Saiyaka, he turned around and started to make his way back. Knowing everyone back at the hut was probably wondering what on earth was going on, this was the third person they had to take care of now. This little vacation was turning out to be more exausting than originally expected.

[Chibi-chan]

Kagome was working on helping Tach, and she looked to Inuyasha when he came back, seeing Saiyaka out cold. "What happened to her?" she asked, frowning some. Shaking her head, she knew that she would find out sooner or later, so went back to trying to help Tach.

"Let's just say that I don't think she'll be waking up soon," Inuyasha grumbled, setting Saiyaka down near Tach. "Somehow, she's feeling Tach's pain, though...I know that much at least," he grumbled.

[m1abrams]

"If it isnt one this its another I swear to god," I said shaking my head rather anoyed.
"Oh just pipe down and let Kagome take care of your arm," Inuyasha said sitting down.
"So is someone going to exlplain all of this to us," Miroku finally asked.
"Yes, I'll explain it, considering I was there for most of it," I said looking over at Miroku," Kikyou came back to take the jewel shard out of Saiyaka's head."
"What, you mean she actually did it," Sango said surprised.
"Yes, but the whole thing must have been one big trick, becuase when she was done removing the shard. Saiyaka just collapsed and fell off into a deep sleep, Kikyou took the jewel shard and was about to leave...but I stopped her," I said looking over at my sword.
"You mean you killed her," Miroku insinuated.
"No...and I'm surprised I did, I had reverted to my full demon form because I was so angry. But for some reason, I let her go, thats when Inuyasha came. I has wounded her, so there was an omonous black blood dripping from my blade. Thats when Inuyasha came and..."
I paused, if I told them that Inuyasha went into a rage over Kikyou, it would probably upset Kagome.
"And what," Sango asked quite interested.
"I accidently tripped, allowing my own blade to cut me and the black blood the seaped from Kikyous wounds in turn started to poison my arm. After that Inuyasha grabbed me up and took me here," I explained.
Well that was a huge lie, but I didnt want to get Kagome upset with the truth. I'm surprised Inuyasha had kept quite, it appears he was doing the same as I was.

[Chibi-chan]

Saiyaka was jerking a bit every now and then, sweat rolling down her forehead. Her mouth opened, and she barely was able to whisper Tach's name, but it managed to come out. She may not be reliving her past, but something in her deep sleep was bothering her greatly.

Inuyasha looked over to her and sighed some, shaking his head. "She's probably got the most problems out of anybody I have ever met," he grumbled under his breath, then began to shake her. "Yo! Wake up!"

[m1abrams]

"Inuyasha stop it, thats not going to help," I said rather anoyed.
"Well I dont see you trying anything," Inuyasha said as he stopped Shaking Saiyaka.
"I am thinking about it, maybe you should try that sometimes it helps," I snapped back at him.
Inuyasha just grumbled and turned away from me, I shurged and let Kagome finish her work. The most amazing thing was when she touched the wound on my arm, any trace of the black blood was turned to water. Now all she was doing was using an old rag to rap up my arm. While she was doing that, I took a notice to a certain other person who happened to be there.
"Okay I am at a tad of a loss here, but isnt that Kagura all wrapped up in a blanket over there," I asked looking over at her.
"Oh yeah, kinda forgot to let you in on that. Inuka here came back, and had Kagura with her. She was wounded and I fixed her up best I could, now she is out like a light," Kagome said a little bit to cheery.
"This day just keeps getting weirder and weirder I am telling you," I said compleatly burned out.

[Chibi-chan]

Inuyasha raised a brow at Kagome, wondering why she was acting like this was an everyday thing. "Well, how the hell do we wake this girl up? I don't care about Kagura, if she wakes up or not, whatever. Saiyaka, though," he said, glancing at Tach. He stopped there, knowing that he didn't have to say anything more.

Sango nodded some and began dabbing at Saiyaka's forehead with a piece of cloth, whiping away the sweat from her forehead. "Couldn't there be anything we could do?" she asked, sighing.

[m1abrams]

When Kagome was done rapping my arm up, I let it fall to my lap and then put my head down. Now that I thought of it I didnt really have any idea as too what was going on, I knew she was sleeping and that was partially reasuring, it was better than her being dead.
"And here I thought coming back would mean we could all relax, and nothing bad would happen. I guess I was wrong...again," I said as a single tear fell to the ground.
"Tach, I am sure none of this was your fault, it was just an unfortunet string of events thats all," Sango said trying to reasure me.
"Can you all leave me alone for a moment, I just need some time to myself for now," I said with a very shalow voice.
"Of course, take all the time you need," Sango said getting to her feet.
Everyone slowly shuffled out of the hut, unlcuding Keade who was in the other room untill now. Kagome looked back at me right before she left, but before she could say anything Inuyasha put a hand on her shoulder and they both walked out. I sat there for the longest time, just thinking, about how this whole thing could have been avoided.
"Its my fault your like this Saiyaka, I should not have even approched Kikyou...I should have just killed her right then and there," I said clentching my fists," Damit why is this happening."
I just about fell over, letting my head fall to the ground right next to Saiyaka's. I sat there and sobbed for just a moment before I looked over at her face. She was just asleep. I picked myself and just kinda layed my head on her chest and began to cry. My tears falling onto her.
"Please wake up Saiyaka, I'm begging you," I said grabbing ahold of a part of her Kimono and squezing tightly.

[Chibi-chan]

A hand rested on the top of Tach's head, running fingers through his hair. "Tach..." Saiyaka whispered, her eyes slowly opening. "None of it is your fault...Kikyou warned me before of the risks, but I ignored them," she whispered. Her eyes were fully opening now, at first showing no emotion, but they gradually became full of sorrow and a bit of pain. The things that she was dreaming while she was asleep...They were horrible things that she never wanted to actually live through. "Tach...Don't cry..."

[m1abrams]

I picked my head up ever so slightly and looked into her eyes, she was awake. But her eyes were filled with sadness, like she just went through something terrible. I let my head rest back on her chest and just breathed a sigh of releife.
"You scared me you know, fearing that you wouldnt wake up. I think we need to just lock outselvs inside the hut for awhile, so nothing esle goes wrong," I said with a sligth laugh.
Know that little joke probably didnt help much I tried to think of something to make her feel at least a little bit better. I picked my head up again and looked into her eyes, trying to find some bit of happiness or joy in there. But all I saw was fear of what had happened in her dreams.
"What ever happened in your dreams, however horrible they were, they were just dreams, nothing more than images in your mind playing tricks on you. You dont have to look so sad becuase of them, they never happened, they werent real," I said smiling a little trying to make her feel better.

[Chibi-chan]

Saiyaka broke down, hearing him say this, and she wrapped her arms around him, holding onto him rather tightly. "I know, I know....It was too real, though!" she whispered fearfully. "I don't want that to happen to you...I don't want it to happen to any of you, but especially not to you!" the half demon whispered, her voice breaking under her fear and worry. She was shaking rather badly against Tach's body. "I don't want it to ever happen...I would rather die," she whimpered.

[m1abrams]

"It wont ever happen, no matter what it was it will never happen. You can trust me on that," I said holding her back just as tight.
I didnt know what it was she was dreaming about, and I didnt want to ask, it was probably worse than anything I could ever imagine outside of loosing her. In just held her there, not wanting to let go. She was shaking so badly I didnt know what to do, I backed away from her a little bit. Still holding onto her, I looked at her, she was still so firghtened.
"Theres no need to be scared anymore, I am here and always will be," I said calmly.
I put my lips gently on to hers, still holding her tightly.

[Chibi-chan]

Saiyaka kissed his lips, tears running down her cheeks. When she broke away from him for a moment, she burried her face in his chest, crying. "You were...you wouldn't awaken...There was so much blood. All of you were dead...all of you!" she whispered, holding onto him, as if afraid that he might disappear. Her voice was filled with despair and pain. "It was so real...Too real," she whimpered, her body shaking from the fright of just recalling it, let alone speaking all of this out loud to him. "I don't want you to die like that...I'll go insane!"

[m1abrams]

"You dont have to worry about it, I will never allow myself to be killed like that and leave you," I said in a lighter tone," It was a bad dream, a nightmare that was put into your mind by Kikyou. You dont have to worry about it ever happening, besides we are all to tough, you know that."
I smiled down at Saiyaka, I didnt want her to cry anymore. It hurt me to see her like that, this dream that she had. It sounded horrible, nothing like that can just be conjured up by ones mind, it had to be Kikyou's doing. Thats the only explanation I could think of, now I wish I could just go and find the witch and give her another scar just for that dream. Inuyasha and the others who were behaving themselvs and were waiting outside, herd us talking but couldnt make out what we were saying.
"Thanks goodness that Saiyaka is okay, Tach looked just absolutly crushed," Kagome said as she sat next to Inuyasha.
"Yeah I'll say, the guy looked like he was about to go insain," Inuyasha said looking over at the huts door.
"I wonder what made Saiyaka wake up," Miroku asked curiously.
"We may never know, I think it best that we dont ask either," Sango said enjoying herself as she sat in the sunlight.
"Hey Kagome, shouldnt you have gone back to your own time by now to get more supplies," Shippou said as he poped out from a large vase.
"Oh thats right, I completely forgot about that. I better get going so I can get all my shopping done in time to be back by tommarow morning," Kagome said getting to her feet.
"Just dont take forever like always so I have to come and get you," Inuyasha grumbled.
"What do you mean, you are coming with me," Kagome said grabbing ahold of Inuyasha and dragging him along.
Before Inuyasha could say much Kagome had said goodbye to everyone and dragged him off towards the bone eaters well.

[Chibi-chan]

"...As much as I would like to blame it all on Kikyou...It's not her fault at all," Saiyaka whispered to Tach. She would much rather like to think that Kikyou placed her in that horrid sleep. That Kikyou had made her see the horrible things that she had just seen. Letting out a sigh, she stepped away from Tach and looked down at her hands, frowning a little. Her own hands, in her dream, had torn everybody appart. She had went on an unknown rampage and killed the group, Tach included. He had been the first one she killed, when he had embraced her...

Whimpering some, she shook her head, trying to get the thoughts out of her mind. "I did it...I spilled their blood," she whispered, her hands forming into fists as she said this. "I even killed..." she stopped, not wanting to go on. She couldn't find her voice any longer.

[m1abrams]

I got to my feet and walked up behind her, I put my arms around her waist and rested my head on her shoulder. She was being torn up inside because of this dream...could it really have been that real...or even...a preminition of what was to come...no! it couldnt be. I would not belive it.
"I know you wouldnt do that, we all do...I could never imagining you doing that to me or any of the others," I said resting my chin on her shoulder and looking out the window.
"He is right you know, you could never do such a thing...even if you are a demon born of Naraku," an all to familial voice said from behind us.
I let go of Saiyaka and turned around, it was Kagura. I had all but forgotten that she was even here, damd she must have heard and seen everything. I had one of the most shocked and embarressed looks on my face at that moment, the fact that Kagura of all people had herd me and Saiyaka talking was hard for me to take in.
"Uh Kagura, your awake...your here...in Keade's hut...why?" I said still in shock.
"Yes I am, and I didnt come here on my own free will, Inuka brought me here," Kagura said getting to her feet," and now I am leaving."
Kagura was partically undressed when she stood up becuase of Kagomes attempt to rap up her wounds, my face went beat red as she covered herself up with her Kimono. I mentally beat myself up for not looking away when that happened. Kagura walked passed me and Saiyaka and headed for the door.

[Chibi-chan]

Saiyaka looked at Kagura and frowned a little. "Kagura...What if something happens and I can't control it? I could most definately could do something horrible if I can't keep myself under control!" she whispered, sounding rather frantic.

Kagura let out a sigh and stopped at the door. "Saiyaka...That's something that I really can't answer. I know that you're strong both mentally and physically. I trust that no matter what happens, you'll be able to pull through," she explained, hoping that these words would put Saiyaka at ease. However, Kagura knew her 'sister' better than that.

[m1abrams]

I watched as Kagura left, the fact that she was still acting kind to both Saiyaka...and me, made me belive even more it would be possible to free her from Naraku's grasp. Everyone outside got to their feet when the caught sight of Kagura, they kinda took a guarded stance as she walked by, she just walked passed and cringed.
"And this is why I can never return to you people," Kagura said as she pulled out one of her feathers.
Kagura flew off into the distance, everyone watching as she left. When she was gone everyone sat back down and began to talk again.
"She has no where to go, she can't stay with us, and she can't stay with Naraku. I feel bad for Kagura, I hope maybe we can help her one day," I said putting and arm around Saiyaka again.

[Chibi-chan]

Saiyaka gave slow nod, cringing a little as Tach touched her. She was afraid that the nightmare was real...or would become real. What had set her off to kill her friends in the first place? What triggered her to transform into something unknown to her, and make her attack even her love? She would have to figure that out, soon, or else she would live in fear of this stupid nightmare that she had awoken from. "I won't let it happen," she murmured, closing her eyes as she got a hold of herself and leaned against Tach.

[Chibi-chan]

Meh...Ignore this one...

[m1abrams]

(OOC: Hey I have a question, I have been doing some time lapsing stuff. Like it will chage from once scene to a new one when the first scene has dragged itself out for awhile. You dont mind that do you?)

"How come I have to carry all this stuff," Inuyasha complained from behind a large pile of boxes and bags he was carrying.
"Its not like I can carry all that stuff on my own, thats why I brought you along," Kagome said as she smiled at Inuyasha.
Kagome and Inuyasha walked down sidewalk in her time, Inuyasha had a blue a red cap over his ears so people couldnt see them. Kagome was ejoying herself, but it was another story for Inuyasha who had to carry everything.
Back in our time...the fedual era I belive I herd Kagome call it once, everything had all but returned to normal. Sango had decdided to travel to her village, and Miroku had gone with her. Shippou was primarily taking care of the still sleeping Kokoru, and I was...not around.
"This is so boring, where on earth is Tach anyways," Shippou complained to himself.
Quite away's from the hut, I was looking over that well that Kagome and Inuyasha had used to go to her time.
"How on earth does this stupid thing work," I said as I looked into the well," I mean is there some magic word you have to say or something to get through or what."

[Chibi-chan]

OOC: That's fine with me!

Saiyaka yawned some, having followed Tach to the well. "You mean that they hop in there and go to another time and place?" she asked him, blinking down into the well. "I should try that sometime!" she exclaimed, crossing her arms as she peered down into the darkness. "Have you tried to go in?"

[m1abrams]

"Are you kidding me, I aint jumping down in there. Though I would love to see Kagomes time," I said pondering the idea.
Well this was interesting, when I was trapped inside that cave, it did seem like I lived a whole nother life. But the more I thought about it, the more unbelivable it sounded. At any rate things would be different now, atleast I think they would.
"I suppose I could atleast try, I mean I dont know if you have to say anything before you jump in, or do anything. But I might as well give it a try," I said standing up on the edge of the well.
It was quite a long way down, and dark, the just better not be any snakes down in there. Sure as hell better not be any, well might as well go for it.
"Wish me luck," I said looking back at Saiyaka just before I was ready to jump in.
I took a deep breath, thinking there might be water and the bottom and then I jumped in. I fell quickly and then I saw the bottom, and it was coming up pretty fast. This was going to hurt, I closed my eyes and got ready to hit the ground...but I kept going...and going. Untill finally I stopped, gently...when I opened my eyes I was at the bottom of the well leaning up against the side of it.
"Well that was weird, I could have sworn I would have hit harder than that," I said to myself looking around," He Saiyaka it dosent work, stupid well must be broken."
When Saiyaka didnt reply, I got a little concerned so I climbed my way up to the top and crawled out. I was in a small shed of some sorts, this wasnt here before.
"Well this is new," I said walking towards a door.
When I slid open the door the light flooded the small shed, I squinted and looked away. When my eyes adjusted I looked back out, at the large gray houses and strange structurs.
"Yeah this wasnt here before," I said a tad confused.

[Chibi-chan]

Saiyaka waited for a long time, waiting for Tach to give her an answer on if the well worked or not for him. After about a half hour of waiting, panic crossed her face as she peered down. "Tach?! Did you smack your head on the way down or something?" she called. "Well, I don't know why I expected an answer for that question..." she mumbled. If he did hit his head, he probably was out cold. "I'm comming in to get you!" she called, jumping down into the well. When she landed, she looked around some, still in the well. "Tach?"

(( I'll let you decide on if it works or not! ))

[m1abrams]

"Ahh what the hell is that," I yelled as I jumped to the side.
A large metal creature blew by on the road next to me, making lots of noise as it went. A person who looked like he was in the creatures head started yelling at me, something about being in the road or something.
"Man this place is crazy," I said panting.
As I sat on the side on the road, people would walk by and stare at me strangely, like I was some kind of demon or something...oh wait I am a demon. The constand staring started to get anoying, and eventually people started to stop and stare.
"What are all of you looking at," I said jumping up and scaring the crap out of them.
The people quickly moved off, I didnt blame them, I was a pretty scary guy. feeling quite good about scaring the crap out of those people...who were waring really strange clothing, I started to pick up Inuyasha's scent. So I began to fallow it, still getting a few stares as I went.
"Tach, what on earth or you doing here," I heard someone scream from behind me.
When I spun around I saw Kagome, she had the most terrified look on her face for some reason or another. It was then I saw Inuyasha, with a large arrainment of boxes in hand.
"Well its about time I found you guys," I said like everything was just fine a dandy.
Kagome quickly pushed me in between a few building, and ran in after me. Inuyasha abruptly fallowed. When he stopped he put down the boxes and started at me.
"What the hell are you doing here," Inuyasha grumbled.
"Uh I dont know, and whats that strange thing on your head," I asked pointing at his hat.
"Thats not important, whats important is we figure out how you got through the well," Kagome yelled quite flustered.
"I dont know, maybe it has something to do with this," I said pulling out the jewel shard that once resided in Saiyaka's head," It started glowing and everything right after I came through the well."
"Where did you get that," Inuyasha asked rather frustrated.
"This was the shard that came from Saiyaka, I forgot to give it you earlier," I said still acting like this was no big deal," Hey wait a minute, do you smell that."
"Smell what," Kagome asked.
"Thats Saiyaka's scent, did she come through the well after me," I said getting to my feet and wondering off.

[Chibi-chan]

Saiyaka raised a brow some and began to pick up some rather strange scents. Shrugging, she climbed out of the well and started. She was no longer in a forest clearing, but rather inside a building. "...Well...I suppose that it works...No wonder Tach didn't answer me!" she sighed. She began to head through the door, but stopped as it opened for her.

A young boy was looking up at Saiyaka, blinking a little. "Another one?" he asked, looking at Saiyaka. "Are you a demon from the place that Kagome goes to?" he questioned, circling around her. "You look more human to me..."

"Hey...What are you?! The reincarnation of a vulture or something?!" Saiyaka asked as the boy circled her. "What do you mean by, 'another one?'" she questioned, sounding a little irritated.

[m1abrams]

"Okay so what you are telling me is that I have to were this hat...or people will freak out about my ears. Thats stupid," I complained as I fidgited with a hat Kagome had gotten for me to ware.
"Thats what I said, but the people in Kagomes time are such cowards even the sight of demons such as us scare them," Inuyasha said from behind his pile of boxes.
"Well you can't blame them, most people don't even belive in demons anymore," Kagome said looking up at Inuyasha.
"Don't belive in demons, I bet you I could strike up some faith in demons if you let me," I said jokingly.
Kagome more or less smacked me upside the head for that comment, I guess these people really were cowards then. Oh well, typical humans, always fearing what they shouldnt...in our case anyways. As we walked back towards the shrine that the well was at, people would still stare at us funny. I have just gotten used to that so I ignored it.
"Mom I'm home," Kagome shouted as we walked into the house.
"Glade to see your back dear, oh and you have brought another visitor," Kagomes mom said appearing from the kitchen.
Kagome just smiled as I fallowed Inuyasha into the house, I could still smell Saiyaka but I didnt know where on earth she was.

[Chibi-chan]

"You mean to say that this is what you sleep on?" Saiyaka asked, poking at the large cusion that the boy called his bed. She found out that the kid's name was Sota, and that he was Kagome's little brother. "My gosh, you people live a life of luxury!" she stated, hopping on the bed and laying down to try it out. "And the clothing you wear is strange," she added. "Aside from that, you have everything!"

"It's not as easy as you say it is," Sota stated, shaking his head. "We have school and everything else to worry about!"

[m1abrams]

"Kagome, did you get some milk at the store like I asked," Kagomes mom called out from another room.
"Yes mom its in one of the bags," Kagome called back.
"Oh you got me," I whined as I sat infront of a large box.
"Ha, thats becuase I am the master at this, there is no way you can defete me," Inuyasha boasted.
Me and Inuyasha were sitting infront of this large glowing box thing. It was showing pictures that we could control with these odd looking devices with a bunch of bottons and stuff on them. I put down the odd thing and got to my feet.
"All this stuff is really amazing, I have never seen anything like it," I said quite impressed by all the stuff in Kagomes house.
"Oh I nearly forgot, Kagome, Sota had brought in a girl ealier today while you were still out. I belive she is up stairs right now," Kagomes mom called out again.
"Oh, she must be talking about Saiyaka," I said walking of towards the stairs.
I walked up the stairs and looked around, there were a bunch of doors but I went right towards the first open one I saw. There was a small boy in there, and there was Saiyaka on his bed.
"Hey, whats going on in here," I asked as I waltzed in.

[Chibi-chan]

Saiyaka was just about to ask what school was, Tach came in and she smiled, jumping off the bed and landing in front of Tach. "So, you did make it here!" she said with a smile, hugging him. "Tach, this place is great! They have good things to eat here, like those potato things!" she exclaimed, holding up a small package. "These chewy fruit things are really good, even if they can stick to your teeth!"

"I told you before...They're called fruit snacks," Sota said with a sigh, shaking his head some. Saiyaka didn't seem to be listening to what he was saying, though. "I give up...She's been asking questions for some time now...Though she won't really listen to answers..."

"I have so been listening!" Saiyaka told him, popping another fruit chew in her mouth. "Plus, there's no demons here, he says!" she told Tach, smirking a bit. "I say that we stay here...I doubt that anything bad could happen in this wold!"

"See? You haven't been listening to me at all! I've told you there there are plenty of bad things that can happen in this world! Car crashes, plane crashes, bank robberies, fires..." Sota began to ramble.

[m1abrams]

"Whats a plane," I asked baffled.
"Oh your both hopeless," Sota cried as he walked out of the room.
"Whats his problem," I said as I watched him leave.
"Thats just Kagomes brother, he is always like that," Inuyasha said appearing from downstairs.
"You mean that's Kagomes brother, I am not seeing any similarities between the two," I said facing Inuyasha.
"Yeah me either, but then again I am nothing like Sesshomaru and we are brothers," Inuyasha pointed out.
"Yeah half brothers," I said raising a brow.
"Thanks for pointing out the obvious smartass," Inuyasha said an ear twitching.
I just smiled at him, I thought I was being rather amusing. But Saiyaka's idea did strike me as a possibility, why not stay here for awhile. There was no way Naraku could get here, thats for sure. And like I have been hearing, there are virtually no demons here. Maybe it would be nice to stay here on something of a vacation.
"Hey I got an idea, why dont we ask Kagome if it would be allright to stay here for a couple days," I said my ears perking up.
"Wait...you mean you want to stay here," Inuyasha asked becoming slightly dissapointed.
"Yeah why not, its not like it would be for a long time. Just a day or so, so we can relax without having to worry about anything bad happening for once. I am sure there is plently of things to do around here by the looks of it," I said quite content with my idea.

[Chibi-chan]

Saiyaka gave a desperate nod and looked at Inuyasha. "Please? We can take a break of finding shards and Naraku's castle for a little while, right?" she asked. "We can go and get Miroku and Sango and Shippo...Oh, and Kilala!" she added.

"There's only one problem with that, Saiyaka...The others don't have the ability to go down the well!" Inyasha snapped. Then again...He didn't think that any of them ever tried, except for Shippo.

[m1abrams]

"But dont all they need is a shard from the Shikon Jewel, I mean thats how I got here," I said holding up the shard again.
"Well we never tried that, and we do have enough for everyone to get through," Inuyasha said pondering the idea.
"Hey guys what are you all doing," Kagome said walking up the steps," Saiyaka, your here too."
Kagome was glad to see Saiyaka there, but confused as to how she got through the well, as was I. She didnt have shard of the jewel in her possetion...to my knowledge anyways.
"Hey Kagome, since your right here I have a little bit of a question to ask you," I asked.
"Uh yeah sure," Kagome said.
"Do you think...that just maybe we could get everyone throught the well. If you let them hold onto a jewel shard as they came through," I asked kindly.
"Huh, I never thought of that. I guess since that's they way I get through then yeah, it should work," Kagome siad thinking hard.
"Than how about we do that and bring them all here, for a vacation of sorts," I said looking the jewel shards Kagome had around her neck.

[Chibi-chan]

Saiyaka tilted her head slightly, looking a little confused. After all, she didn't have a single shard of the jewel in her possession, and yet she was just fine with going though to Kagome's world. "I don't have a shard, but I came here..."

Kagome blinked at Saiyaka, then looked at Tach. "All of them here?" she asked, bitting her lip a little. What she was picturing in her mind wasn't something that would settle very well with her. "I have a hard enough time keeping Inuyasha in the house!" she exclaimed, looking a bit nervous.

[m1abrams]

"Who said we had to leave the house, and besides Sango and Miroku are humans not demons like Inuyasha and I with our...apparent differences. It would be easy for them to go outside of the house without attracting alot of attention, Shippou would probably have to stay at the house with us though," I said thinking about everyone who would be here.
"Yeah but still, that many people...here at one time, I dont think we have enough food for all of them," Kagome said nervously.
"Oh dont be silly dear, we have plently of food for guests," Kagomes mom said appearing from the downstairs with a large basket filled with clothes.
Kagome sighed and nodded her head, she couldnt argue against her mother about that. Me personally thought Kagomes mom was pretty cool, she reminded me alot of my own mother, infact they were almost identical, except for the fact my mother had long hair.
"Its settled then, I will take the shards back with me and get the others," I said with an excited look on my face.
"Allright, just dont loose them," Kagome said handing me the vile of shards.
I took the shards in hand and started to make my way down the stairs. This was going to be interesting, to have everyone here. I was still amazed at all this, I couldnt wait to see what the others thought of it all.
"Oh hey Saiyaka, I will be right back. You stay here with Inuyasha and kagome while I get the others," I yelled back just as I was about to walk out the door.

[Chibi-chan]

Saiyaka nodded some, smiling a bit. "Be careful," she told him, then went back to munching on the fruit snacks that she still had. Kagome's mom was a nice lady, letting them all stay here. She kind of whished that she had known what her mother was like, but she didn't dwell on thinking about people that she had never met. "Kagome!" she said suddenly.

Kagome blinked at Saiyaka, wondering what all the fuss was about all of a sudden. "What is it?" she asked.

"What is that?" Saiyaka asked, pointing to a small television set in Sota's room.

[m1abrams]

"What are you serious!" Shippou just about shouted in my ear.
"Yes I am, thats why Kagome let me bring the shards back with me so you could all come," I said as I checked my ear to make sure it wasnt damaged.
"So this whole time, we could have traveled to Kagomes times if we wanted too," Miroku said in a rather good mood.
"Yeah, I guess Kagome nor Inuyasha really thought about it alot, it wasnt untill I relized I could get through when I had this shard on me that I thought of it," I said looking at the shard that let me through.
"Then what are we waiting for lets get going," Shippou said reaching for the jewel shards.
"Wow now hang on there buddy, give me a second to open the bottle why dont ya," I said holding shippou back with one of my feet.
I carefully opened the bottle and handed one to each of them, I had to be extra careful with the shards. Considering I was a demon, I didnt want to accidently implant one in me. That could cause some issues, when they were all passed out, I tied Kokoru who Sango had brought along to my back.
"Allright Shippou you are first, but dont go wondering off when you get there," I said to him as he darted into the well.
Miroku and Sango fallowed suit and when I was sure they had all gotten through I jumped in as well. This time I kept my eyes open, and saw what it was like to pass between the two demensions of time. It was beautiful, but it was over quickly and I once again found myself on the other side. Crammed into the bottom of the well with the others. When we all crawled out of the well, I opened the door that led to the outside and they all walked out.
"So this is Kagomes world," Sango said looking at all the buildings in the distance.

[Red Dragon]

Inuka came back from gathering healing herbs for Yunjis poison for Kagura but found the camp empty. "Energetic bunch aren't they?" commented a voice from behind her. Inuka turned and hissed. Naraku stood thier with a swarm around him. With 2 slashes they were no more but Naraku came forward. Inuka was on edge as it was and this wasn't helping. "I want you to find them for me." Naraku said plainly. "Now why would I do a thing like tha" Inuka started to say but she stopped mid sentence. She had been jabbed in the neck with a feathered dart. Kagura came out from behind her. Inuka's eyes went wild at this sudden betrayal. 'Again?' she thought 'How could you?' Kagura cluched her chest and walked away.

[Chibi-chan]

"It's so great here...No Naraku, no demons to fight all the time...Well, the no demons thing may not be good after a few days. I have to have someone to fight...Ah, then again, Inuyasha is always a good choice!" she snickered. "Though I'd rather look for a challenge!"

"You know, Saiyaka..." Inuyasha snapped, getting irriated by her words. "If you keep on talking like that, I'll show you how easy fire is to make in this world!" he threatened, though it didn't seem like Saiyaka was listening to his threat one bit.

Kagome was sighing some as Saiyaka seemed to ask what every little thing was. Right now, the half demon was really starting to get on Kagome's nerves, and it was showing.

[Red Dragon]

Ripping the dart out she smelled a distinct poison. She threw the herbs at the retreating Kagura who looked stunned and dropped to her knees. "What are you doing to me?!" she shouted to Naraku who dared to come even closer. She tried to growl but it came out as a weak hiss. Her body was going numb and it was hard to focus. "I'm mearly putting your talents to good use." Naraku responded confidently stroking her hair. She tried to throw herself away from him but only ended up falling over. "Fine" he said sounding a little disapointed. "Have it your way. On your feet." he barked. With dulled yellow eyes she obayed.

Inuka heard Inuyasha and Seshomaru call her. She got up and walked forward, following them. They had a game going, it looked like. They were tracking some thing. She smiled at them and tok the lead wanting to beat them.

Kagura watched in horror as Inuka got to her feet, smiled and took off. They followed her to a wooden well. Kagura was confused 'at least I'm not the only one' she thought looking over at Narku.

[Chibi-chan]

Saiyaka's worries were easily slipping away from her mind when she was in Kagome's world. Especially since she was being distracted by what Sota was calling a 'video game'. It took quite a while for her to figure out how to use the 'controller' properly, but she finally got the hang of it. As a matter of fact, she was actually beginning to beat Sota at a figting game that he had. Of course, this was probably due to her 'botton mashing' as the boy called it, but the half demon really didn't seem to care what the reason was as long as she was beating him at his own game.

[Red Dragon]

Inuka's ears twiched. She paused and turned from Inuyasha and Seshomaru to look behind them. She didn't see anything but the hairs on the back of her neck were standing on end. She turned back to her brothers as they followed her over to the well, thier prey was close. Inuka blinked. It was human. The prey was human. Her brow furrowed as she jumped on to the little well. 'Why would they chase a human?' she thought. She shivered and tried to catch Seshomarus kimono to tug on it for his attention. He twirled away looked at her franticly. Inuka looked over at Inuyasha who was also just out of reach. 'Whats wrong?' she thought fuzzy headed.
She tipped forward and fell in to the well and just as her eyes dimmed in to darkness, she saw a blue light just before she landed hard on the dirt floor.

[Chibi-chan]

"Hmm...Here I thought that you were the king of video games, Sota!" Kagome said, starting to laugh at the sight of Saiyaka defeating her little brother so badly. "How many losses is that now, Sota?" she taunted as the half demon beat the boy again.

Sota groaned as the result screen read 10 losses. "Shut up, Kagome!" he snapped, tossing the controller aside and looking at Saiyaka. "Oh, don't give me that 'I want to do it again' look!" he groaned.

"Oh! You can't get me hooked and then give up on it and make me play alone!" Saiyaka whined, then stopped. She put down her controller and blinked a bit. "...There's another demon here?"

[Red Dragon]

Inuka gasped for breath. Sh had landed hard on her back and was looking up at the bright blue sky above. 'Ow' she thought struggling to move. She smelled the real Inuyasha and the gang. She also smelled a large population of humans. She thought back and remembered seeing the phantom Inuyasha and Seshomaru disappear to reveal Naraku as she fell. 'Whats he waiting for?' she wondered. She was hurt and this was the most opertune moment for him to strike. She heard a rustle from above and braced herself as she eased her blade Defender from its shieth.

[Chibi-chan]

OOC: Meh...Where did m1abrams go to, I wonder? Anywho, Red Dragon...Gots a question for ya! Are you in Kagome's period now?

[Red Dragon]

yeah. You can bring the gang, I'm in the well.

[Chibi-chan]

OOC: Well, I was going to wait for m1abrams, but...gosh, it's been days! *whimperrs* I want him to come back on!

[Red Dragon]

yeah, look, I'll start and they can jump in as we go, sound good?

Rising to her knees Inuka looked up as a shadow partially filled the light from above. "S-Sa-Saiyaka?" she choked out. 'Man, this well really tore me up. I'm stiff as a board' she thought flexing her arms.

[Chibi-chan]

Saiyaka headed out of Sota's room, heading towards the well. It was a half demon's scent...Whose? It was familiar, but she really couldn't place it at the moment for some reason. When she got to the well, she peered down and gasped a little as she saw Inuka. "Wha...What are you doing here?!"

[Red Dragon]

Inuka gasped. "Saiyaka! Where is everyone, where am I? " she shouted up the well. Climbing up was a chore in her hanyou form. 'I hate these days' she thought clinging to the walls. "Can't wait to be a demon again." Inuka muttered. Saiyaka gave her a look. "No offence, I'm just not used to being like this." Inuka said reaching the top.
She looked around wide eyed. "Saiyaka, what happend to me? Where are we?" she said sitting on the wells railing taking the whole scene in.

[Chibi-chan]

"Slow down with the questions!" Saiyaka said, blinking a little. "Umm...Right now everybody is at Kagome's house. I think that you should figure out by now that you're in a well," she stated, grinning a little bit. "As for what happened to you...I have no clue at all," she said, raising a brow slightly. "What are you doing in Kagome's era, anyway?"

[Red Dragon]

"Kagome's era?" Inuka said dazed. "I was tracking..." Inuka stopped. She had been tracking Saiyaka. "Look, I was under Narakus spell for a time and he had me track you down, I almost led them to this well and when I broke free of the spell I fell in to this well." she said leaving out Kagura and her brothers. 'Not, you brothers' she tried to tell herself. 'Inuyasha hates you, remember?' she thought nodding at Saiyaka.

"From the smell of things," Inuka started looking at the falling sun. "I'm not the only one at a disadventage. Inuyasha's transforming in to a human as we speak." Inuka said following Saiyaka out of the well house. She watched the sun fall and glanced a her receading claws. "Looks like we have more in common than I thought Inuyasha" she said to herself as she to became human.

[Chibi-chan]

Siayaka blinked, looking quite confused at this information. "You mean...Naraku was trying once again to find me and make my life as miserable as possible?" she asked with a sigh, shaking her head. Then she swore and kicked at the well, watching Inuka go to a human form. "Alright, what else can go wrong now...If Naraku comes out of that well and into this era, I'm going to scream...loud!"

[Red Dragon]

"good thing I'm human then" said Inuka as she felt her furry ears disappear. Looking closly at Saiyakas head Inuka sniffed with her diminishing sense of smell. "You smell different, what happened to your head?" she asked as Saiyaka lead her to Kagomes house where Inuyasha was yelling some nonsens.

[Chibi-chan]

Saiyaka blinked multiple times, raising a brow questioningly. "My scent is different? What did I do to my head?" she echoed. "Umm...I don't think that I can recall doing anything to my head," she muttered, feeling at it and blinking some more.

[Red Dragon]

"You had one of those shards in your head didn't you?" Inuka asked peering closer. "Maybe my eyes are plying tricks on me" she decided. As they reached the door They paused. "Is Tach and Inuyasa mad at me?" Inuka asked abruptly.

[Chibi-chan]

"The shard was removed," Saiyaka said bluntly. She didn't think that there was really any reason to explain how. "Umm, Tach and Inuyasha mad? I don't think they are! Why do you ask?"

[Red Dragon]

Well, Tach was sort of out of it last time and Inuyasha probebly never want to see me again. I know I'm not his real sister, but I.." Inuka started to ramble on but stopped herself. Taking a breath she steadied herself. "Inuyasha's father is the only father I have ever known, and well, you know I'm a full demon with a human heart... I'm actually more of a mutt than Inuyasha is. I'm sorry about scaring you with my fire but you're probably wondering how I can throw fire and water right?" Inuka said feeling a little relief. "My parents, whoever they were elemental demons of mixed breeds. Thats why I can do all of those things, I want you to have this as my appology" said Inuka a little uncomfortable as she thrust a little jewel into Saiyakas hands. "You won't have to worry about fire anymore." Inuka explained looking away.
Saiyaka was a little baffled at Inukas words but asked about Inuka's little friend, Kira. Inukas face hardened "Yunji, he killed her"

[m1abrams]

(OOC: OMFG what the hell happened, I thought it was you two that were missing, I replied and then waited for days on end but everytime I checked there was no replies but mine, the computer must have gone all nuts on me. It even said that you two were never online. I am so confused, I am reading and trying to catch up now. Hopefully I can get back in this, sorry for my absence, I dont know what happened.)

"Oh damd where am I," I said looking around at all the large buildings," I suppose this is what I get for wondering off just becuase I smelled something good."
I crossed my arms and walked along, quite angry at myself for getting lost, it was my own dang fualt. I was starting to get worried though, after showing Miroku, Sango and Shippou to the house, I just kinda left without explaining anything.
"Saiyaka is going to whoop my butt for this one," I said as I walked out onto a street.
When I looked up I finally caught sight of Kagomes shrine, I breathed a sigh of relife and bloted in that direction.
"Well its about time I found it," I said as I flew across the street and up the steps.
When I reached the top of the steps, I found a very interesting surprise for me at the top.
"Where on earth have you been," Kagome yelled quite angry.
"Ahh, Kagome thank god its only you," I said being quite startled at first.
"What do you mean its just me, why did you go wondering off again, you are going to get yourself seen, not only that we need you hear, something has happned," Kagome shouted very anoyed with me.
"Something happened, what on earth are you rambling on about," I asked quite confused.

[Chibi-chan]

(( *tackles m1abrams* Bah...Whenever I checked, it always said that YOU were offline, buddy! Oh well, it's all good now! ^_^ ))

When Saiyaka heard this, she put a hand over her mouth, looking horrified. "Who is this Yunji?!" she asked in a low hiss, looking ready to go through the well and hunt this guy down. However, if she did that, Tach would probably worry and go after her, so she decided against this. After all, she and the others needed time to relax. "Come with me...I'm sure Kagome will let you stay at her house as well," she said.

She caught Tach's scent, and her face lit up. Saiyaka took off in a flat out run, practically breaking off the door as she scrambled into the house and glared at Tach. "Where were you?!"

[m1abrams]

"Oh hey Saiyaka, I can explain that," I said rubbing the back of my head.
"Moron here smelled something and decided to go off and find it, stupid idiot got himself lost," Inuyasha snikered giving me a nasty look.
"I thought we agreed on no more name calling," I grumbled glaring back at him.
"What I am only stating the fact," Inuyasha said with a smirk on his face.
"Oh will you two pipe down," Miroku said as he sat on the couch.
I just glared at Inuyasha for a few more moments and then went back to my business, Kagome was sure right about this one, someting was happening that needed my attention. Kokoru had finally decided to wake herself up, I was about to tell Saiyaka when I noticed another certain somebody standing behind her.
"Well this is interesting, Inuka, I never thought I would see you here," I said a little surprised.
"Another guest, oh my they just keep coming dont they grandpa," Kagome mom said smilling at Kagome grandfather.
"Yes, indeed they do," Kagomes grandfather said as he sipped some tea.
Even though this Inuka girl was here I didnt mind to much, she didnt seem all to dangerous to me anymore. Untill now I had not noticed that I was in my human form, I had completely forgot that it was the night of the new moon again.

[Red Dragon]

(*hugs m1abrams, We missed you!)

"Thanks Saiyaka" said Inuka. She turned to find Tach there with a look of surprise. 'oh, yeah, he hasn't seen me like this..' she thought cluching her kimono feeling vulnerable. The moon was not yet back and she kept glancing at the well house. Looking at the two hanyous infrunt of her she sighed, she didn't want to interupt but this couldn't wait. "Saiyaka, Tach, I think we should take this inside for the moment." she said pulling the two in to the house.

Inuyasha was fighting Sota on the little box of light and losing while the monk and the demon exterminator watched. Kagome was distributing bowls of wonderful smelling noodles. "ummm." Inuka froze. Her last conversation with inuyasha hadn't gone so well but she was determined to gain his trust. "Look everyone. The Earth Demon Yujin is using decendents of naraku and his fellow creations blood to overthrow naraku and get the jewel. He's going to be looking for Saiyaka as narakus daughter." Inuka sumerized to everyone. Inuyasha stood up and got infront of everyone keeping himself between her and them. "Saiyaka, who's the crazy human?" Inuyasha called. A vein stuck out on Inuka's forhead as she bashed him on the head with Songos bomerang bone. 'So much for that' she thought handing Sangos bomerang back. "It's me you baka. Inuka. Like you can talk, you're just as human as I am!" she yelled at him. Kagome came between them and shoved Inuyasha back saying "What Inuyasha means is, you look different is all." "Human heart means sometimes hanyou days, and human nights." Inuka explained taking the bowl of noodles that Kagome offered. "My thanks" she said as Inuyasha started forward to bash her back.

[Red Dragon]

oh! sorry! I just posted this but it doesn't make sense anymore... sorry.

[Chibi-chan]

"You ran off for food and you didn't even invite me!?" Saiyaka asked, letting out a sort of whimper. However, her attention span on that didn't last long, as Sota began to challenge her to play another 'video' game. "I kicked your butt at that one game already, and I can do it with another!" she yelled, accepting the challenge.

She blinked a little when she heard that Kokoru was awake now. "Is she alright, Kagome?" the half demon asked, tilting her head to the side in question.

[m1abrams]

"Yes she is fine, she is upstairs in my room resting a little more and having someting to eat. Its rather cute considering Shippou has been up there by he side the whole time," Kagome said with a smile.
"She was a tad upset when she learned what really happened, it turns out that she was implanted with jewel shard the first night we were all together. Naraku must have came in the dead of night and done it then, but she is fine now, no fever or anything," I said going over what Kokoru had recalled.
Miroku and Sango who were still on the couch, not willing to get up considering it was one of the most comfortable things they had ever sat on, were taking what Inuka said quite seriously, alot more seriously than I was. I had heard what she said, and it really didnt surprise me. After that incident with Onigumo poping out of Naraku like that, he was weak, and in a position that other demons who were just as powerful to try and take over and gain posetion of the jewel.
"Inuka, this information you have brought us is very important, and will help us greatly and I appreciate it very much. But considering we are here and not there, I really just want to relax, and I think you should as well. We have the time, and there is nothing bad that could possibily happen to us here, so why dont we just sit back and relax," I said with a huge smile on my face.

[Chibi-chan]

Saiyaka smiled a little, then smirked a bit and began to drag Tach upstairs to Sota's room. "You have to play the device that this kid has! It's the greatest thing in the world!" she told him, rather excited.

"It's about time you got here!" Sota exclaimed when Saiyaka and Tach entered his room. "It's a racing game this time!" the boy stated, pointing at the screen.

There were strange things zooming on the television, which made rather irritating sounds in Saiyaka's opinion. "...What's racing got to do with noisy objects?" she questioned, raising a brow as she hopped onto what Sota called a 'bean bag'.

[m1abrams]

"Oh this thing again, I got a chance to play before, but Inuyasha beat me," I grumbled.
"Thats becuase I can kick your tail at anything anytime," Inuyasha bragged from outside Sota's room.
"Oh yeah I'd like to see you try and back those words up," I shouted jumping to my feet and staring at Inuyasha.
"All right then, I've been looking something to keep me occupied," Inuyasha said cracking his nuckles.
"Inuyasha sit boy," Kagome yelled as she walked up the stairs with a bunch of bags in her hands.
Inuyasha hit the ground just as Kagome walked up to the door, I just smirked and started to prod at Inuyasha and make fun of the fact that he got sat again. It was then I became interested in the bags that Kagome had in her arms.
"Hey Kagome whats up with bags," I asked as I sat back down on Sota's bed.
"Their clothes," Kagome said as she sat them down.
"Clothes for who," Inuyasha asked getting back up rubbing his head.
"For all of you who else," Kagome said she pulled out a shirt.
"For us, why," I asked rather confused.
"Well I can't just have all of your running around dressed like you are, people might think you are wierd," Kagome said as she took the clothes out.
"Feh like I am going to ware any of those stupid looking clothes," Inuyasha grumbled.
"I second that," I said raising my hand not to interested in wearing those wierd clothes.
"Your going to wear them and that's finall," Kagome said flames appearing around her.
Me and Inuyasha shurnk down quite quickly and we just nodded in agreement, not will to have Kagome get mad at us and...beat us.

[Chibi-chan]

Saiyaka ignored the game and began to dig around in the bags, becomming interested in what kinds of clothing there was. She liked the clothes that Kagome wore, especially that uniform that she wore for school and all. However, she was disappointed when she didn't find one similar to it in the bags. "Kagome!" she whined.

Kagome blinked some, wondering what Saiyaka was worried about or whatever was her problem. "Uhh...What's wrong with you, Saiyaka? Don't tell me that you don't want to wear those kind of clothes, either..."

"But...I want one like what you have on," she stated, pointing to her school uniform.

[Red Dragon]

Inuka lifted a leather jacket and some pants. "What manner of clothing is this?" she asked holding it up to Kagome. Kagome sighed, within a good hour she had Inuka and Saiyaka dressed as best she could. Inuka wore the long leather jacket that she had liked so much with a tanktop and some jeans. "They feel so strange" Inuka said twirling around on front of Kagomes looking glass.

[m1abrams]

"Dont tell me you like those clothes, they are really wierd looking...and skimpy," I said scratching the back of my head.
"And whats wrong with my clothes being like that," Kagome snarled at me.
"Oh nothing, nothing at all, didnt mean anything by it," I said quickly slinking away.
Kagome watched as I quickly grabbed an outfit from one of the bags and I slunk away towards the bathing room to change. Kagome sighed and looked back at Saiyaka.
I quickly changed into the clothes that were provided to me. The whole time remembering when I used to ware clothes similar to this, and how now I thought they were wierd looking.
"Man these things are so stupid looking," I said walking out of the bathing room.
"Yeah and you look stupid in em too," Inuyasha said poking his head out of another room.
"And you dont in yours," I growled.
"I bet I look alot better than you do," Inuyasha said looking at my outfit.
I was now dressed in a pair of blue jeans, and had these socks on my feet wich were really uncomfortable to me know considering that I had been running around bare foot for quite awhile now. The shirt I had picked up was pink, wich mad me look...girly.
"No way I am wearing a pink shirt, I will be right back," I said heading back into the bathing room.
I quickly came back out, I had taken off the pink shirt and put back on my tan long sleeve undder shirt and the black vest that belonged to my Kimono, I had tucked them into my jeans and was feeling alot better about this outfit.
"There, now I dont look a dumb," I said quite happy.

[Chibi-chan]

Saiyaka blinked a little, looking at the two in their new clothing, a smile breaking out across her face as she saw how odd they looked. She started to point and laugh at Inuyasha, though, not Tach.

Kagome came in the room with her spare uniform, took a look at the boys, and laughed, tossing Saiyaka the uniform. "Wow, you two look almost normal now!" she said with a bit of a laugh.

"...Normal?" the half demon laughed, heading into Kagome's bathroom to change clothes.

[m1abrams]

When I walked into the room that Inuyasha was in I finally caught sight of the clothes he was in, a pair of tan kaki pants and a sky blue hoody with a dragon on the back. Well he was right about one thing, he didnt look as stupid as I did before. I sat down on the floor next to him and just waited for Saiyaka to come out, Inuyasha didnt seem to be bothered by his clothes at all. I dont know how he did it, these pants were extreamly uncomfortable at first.
"Well thats an interesting mix," Kagome said looking at my outfit.
"Yeah well pink didnt exactly look to great on me," I said picking through the pockets on my pants.
It was then that I herd two more people come up the steps, it was Miroku and Sango who Kagome had also forced into these off new clothes. Miroku was also in a pair of kaki pants and had a white shirt on, and Sango...
"Well then, thats a change for the better," I said catching sight of Sango my draw practically dropping to the floor.
Sango was in V-neck short sleve shirt with a pair of tight black jeans. Both Inuyasha and me spun our heads around and looked in awe at Sango and how she was dressed, she blushed slightly and a vain poped out on Miroku's forhead. Before we knew it both me and Inuyasha found ourselvs on the ground twitching when Miroku hit both of us on the head. As Inuyasha got up again he recieved another swift blow to the head from Kagome, who noticed the way he was looking at Sango.
"Ha...serves you right Inuyasha," I said picking myself up and laughing.

[Red Dragon]

Inuka giggled, it seemed like since a long time that she had laughed. Inuka caught sight of Sango and tossed her, her own leatehr jacket causing Miroku to gawk at her. Sango hit him and he joined the rest of them on the ground with swirly eyes.

[Chibi-chan]

When Saiyaka heard all of the commotion, she peeked out and blinked at Sango, smiling a little. "You look nice!" she said, though she herself wouldn't come out of the bathroom. Only her head poked through the door.

Kagome rolled her eyes some and opened the door further, though with difficulty, considering Saiyaka was trying to close it up again. "Come out!" Kagome urged, a smile crossing her face when she was able to see Saiyaka. "You look good, so come out!"

Saiyaka blushed a little and stepped out of the bathroom, so that the rest could see her. The uniform was slightly big on her, the shirt sleeves slightly falling past her palms. The skirt, however, was perfect length.

[DownRight-eviL]

Seraph and Vanyel blinked repeatedly. It seemed like they've been gone for over a month, when actually, it only appeared to be a few days. They both simultaneously squeaked when they realized that they were all alone... They bristled and gritted their teeth. How dare they leave them here, IN THE fri**en' past, without no one to annoy!!

Seraph stared at Vanyel. "Well..." he coughed and whistled. "What do we do now?" he asked, pouting.

Vanyel snickered. "We... Stawk them of course!" he pumped his right fist into the air and grinned. "Stawking time!!" he yelled and ran to the well.

"Oh what the hell..." Seraph rolled his eyes and proceeded to follow the ever-snickering Vanyel.

[m1abrams]

Again I was just about drewling on myself when Saiyaka came out of the bathroom. Inuyasha got back up and quickly shut my mouth for me, I got to my feet and was still in awe at the uniform she was wearing.
"Well Tach say someting allready just dont stand there and gawk," Miroku said prodding me in the side.
"Yeah...I was right that is a skimpy skirt," I said looking at how far up the skirt came on Saiyaka's legs.
I bent down lower and lower untill finally Miroku poped me in the head again, this whole new clothes thing was turning out quite interesting.
"And you all call me a pervert," Miroku said looking at me as I got to my feet.
"Sorry about that, you really do look beautiful though Saiyaka. The Uniform suites you," I said scratching the back of my head a tad embarressed.

[Chibi-chan]

Saiyaka went quite red when Tach tried to peek up her skirt, but she wasn't a mad at him for doing such a thing. After all, they were officially a couple and all, so why should she be mad. However, she got angery when Miroku took it upon himself to punish Tach. Scowling - and forgetting that she was in a small skirt - she kicked Miroku right in the face, unknowingly allowing him to get an eyeful.

Miroku, who was now sprawled on the ground, had a large grin on his face. "Ooh...That was definately worth it!" he said out loud.

[Red Dragon]

'Awww. How adorable.' Inuka thought glancing at the two. A few hours later Inuka was wrestling with Inuyasha over the magical stick that made the box change. "Give it back runt!" he shouted at her. "No chance." she countered hopping on the furniture as she avoided Inuyasha's grip. 'This is nice' she thought yet again escaping his grasp. 'It's like I have a family, mabye Kira wasn't the one who needed them' she thought as Inuyasha tackled her to the ground.
Just then Kagome came in to the room. "Inuyasha! What are you doing!?" she shouted. At this point Inuyasha and Inuka froze, he was on top of her and the magical box stick was cluched in both of thier prying hands. Inuyasha looked at the situation and blushed giving up the changer to the astonished Inuka. Kagome charged out on fire "Its not what it looks like Kagome!" he shouted after her.

The sun was setting and she could feel the change coming. She even saw Inuyasha's hair, like her own waver to white as he gracefully chased the enraged Kagome. Inuka still had a half a day as a hanyou and flexed her greatly missed claws.
Leaping afer the two she landed infront of the charging Kagome and presented her with the magical box stick saying "Don't be mad, we're sorry." Inuyasha nerviously snorted "Feh, not me." "I forgive [U]you Inuka." she said pointedly adding a "sit!" as she pulled Inuka along toward the kitchen.

[m1abrams]

I sat quite comfortable on the large couch that sat infront of the TV, I was watching Inuyasha and Inuka fight over the video game controller. I was really starting to get to know of all these things now, the TV, the Video games, and the cars that roamed around the city in mass packs.
"You know I am rather enjoying myself," I said as I relaxed.
"I dont know what you are talking about, but I am bored out of my skull," Inuyasha said as he sat on the floor.
"Not everything is always figthing and slaying demons Inuyasha, just kick back and relax, plus Kagome promised to take us all out into town today," I said pearing down on Inuyasha.
"I've allready seen all that," Inuyasha grumbled.
"I highly doubt you have seen all of the city, its huge, I am still having a hard time beleiving it," Miroku said as he appeared from the upstairs.
"Hey Miroku, what happened to Sango," I asked looking at him with my head upsidedown.
"I think she is in the other room with Kagome," Miroku said taking a seat next to me on the couch.
It was then that both Kokoru and Shippou came down the steps as fast as they could chasing after Kagomes cat Buyo, they jumped across mine and Miroku's lap. They then made a U turns and headed back towards Inuyasha, Inuyasha tried to grab for Buyo but he jumped into the air and then bouced of Inuyasha's face, Shippou and Kokoru then did the same thing and then they all bolted into the next room.
"Entergenic arent they," I said as I listened the things crashing in the other room as they ransacked it.
"Yeah I'll say," Inuyasha said quite anoyed with all the paw prints on his face.

[Chibi-chan]

Saiyaka, who had been in Kagome's room, taking a look at things, came running out, covering her nose. "What was that stuff?!" she yelped. "How can you put such horrid smelling items on your skin?!"

"What are you talking about, Saiyaka? I think that it smells rather nice," Sango said, comming out after her. She had her nose close to her wrists, sniffing slightly. She laughed a little when Saiyaka gagged at this action.

"It's called perfume, Saiyaka," Kagome answered, spraying some on both of her wrists. She did the same thing as Sango did and smiled. "Yes, it's been so long since I put this scent on!"

"Disgusting!" the half demon hissed, her hands still guarding her nose protectively so that she wouldn't have to catch the horrible smell.

[m1abrams]

My ears perked up when I herd Saiyaka shouting about something up in Kagomes room, I got to my feet and started to walk up the stairs to see what was going on. When I got to the top of the stairs I caught wind of a really strong smell, it was so strong I had to cover my nose.
"What on earth is that," I asked the girls.
"Its called perfume, dosent it smell nice," Kagome said with a smile on her face.
"Perfume, what is it some kind of weapon to null the senses of a demon or what," I said still holding my nose shut.
"Its not that bad smelling is it," Kagome said a tad dissapointed knowing if I didnt like it than Inuyasha definitly wouldnt.
"No it dosent smell bad, its just really strong, I mean its burning my nose," I said backing away from the smell.
Kagome was releived about hearing part of that, it didnt smell bad, it was just way to strong for my demon nose to take. I also noticed that Saiyaka had her nose covered, it was then I compiled a bit of a plan. I quickly grabbed ahold of Saiyaka's other arm and bolted down the steps as fast as I could go and then went out the door.
"What on earth was that all about," Sango asked a little cofused.
"Beats me," Miroku said as he and Inuyasha looked out the door where I had dragged Saiyaka.
I finally skidded to a hault just outside the house, not only was I trying to get away from that smells. But I thought it would be nice if me and Saiyaka could take a walk.
"Sorry about that, I just couldnt stand that smell much longer," I explained to Saiyaka.

[Chibi-chan]

Saiyaka stuck her tounge out and slowly removed her hand from her nose. "Ugh...Not everything in this era is good," she muttered under her breath. Then she got quite excited. "Overall, though, it's great!" she added with a bit of a squeal in her voice. This time period was something much more better than she could have ever imagined it to be. No wonder Kagome always seemed to be in such a hurry to get home.

"...Kagome has such a nice family," the half breed stated after a minute, looking towards the kitchen where Kagome's mother and grandfather were. Her eyes held a slight look of yearning, but it quickly disappeared when she turned to face Tach again.

[m1abrams]

"Yeah she does, its kinda wierd though, Kagomes mom reminds me alot of my own," I blurted outloud.
Well I wasnt exactly going to say that outloud, the fact was that Kagomes mom was very similar to mine. Especially when she smiled, it was the same smile I remember my mom giving me everytime I clung at her side.
"Yeah...hey I was wondering if you wanted to take a quick walk with me," I said recovering from that quickly before Saiyiaka started to question me about it," I was thinking that since we got here we havnt had much time to just be together...so why dont we cash in on that right now before we head out into the town."
Truth was I really wanted to get away from Inuyasha and the others, they were starting to get on my nerves really. Inuyasha and his constant complaining could just about drive anyone nuts. I reached down and grabbed Saiyaka's hand and then looked back at her, I smiled just a little and started to walk.

[Chibi-chan]

Naturally, Saiyaka beamed and gripped onto his hand slightly as they walked, a smile on her face. She was a bit curious why Kagome's mom reminded Tach so strongly of his own. Maybe there was a possibility that Kagome's mother was the reincarnation of Tach's mother? Well, at any rate, she didn't bring the subject about, considering that Tach didn't really want to say a thing about it in the first place and all. That was understandable enough.

"So, where shall we be going for this little walk of ours, hm?" she asked, smiling a little more.

[Red Dragon]

Inuka gagged on the scent in the air and tried not to balk as Kagome entered. She saw the halfdemons face anyway and yelled "Does everyone hate my perfume?!" Inuyasha hit the deck dragging her with him as Kagome glared at everyone, fire loomed out around her. "She's scary when she's mad" Inuka said looking up at the angry Kagome. "Does it come in handy fighting demons?" Inuka asked.

[m1abrams]

"Well the land that the shrine is on is rather large, I though we would just take a quick walk through here, away from the house of course," I said as we walked further from the house.
After abit the house was a good deal away, and the possibility of someone overhearing us was minimal. But I dont doubt that someone would come searching for us after awhile. It was a nice day, there was a slight breaze that moved the trees from side to side as we walked through to be something of a small park that was behind the shrine.
"So since we are alone, is there anything that you would like to talk about, I mean since we are away from the others we dont have to watch what we say to much," I said with a laugh.

[Chibi-chan]

Saiyaka smiled a little, glad that he had asked her. She rested her head gently on his shoulder. "Well, there's the question that you had brought up before," she murmured. "I...I think that I have the answer to it," she stated as she stopped walking. Slowly, she raised her head from his shoulder so that she could look into his eyes. Honestly, she didn't really know why she hadn't replied to him sooner. Maybe because with all that had happened, she couldn't really give him the kind of answer that she wanted.

[Red Dragon]

In response to Inukas question Kagome flared at Inuyasha who hit Inuka hard on the head as if she were still a pup. This caused her to tackled him and the whole fight started all over again. They knocked furniture over and a potted plant with a scroll on it. Just then Kagome's grandfather can in and looked shockingly at the sparing hanyous to his broken plants pot. "Demons begone!" shouted Kagome's grandfather tossing a grey powder over them. Inuyasha sneezed as did Inuka and Shippou who had joined in to help Inuka. Kagomes grandfather stuck paper scrolls to each hanyou chanting all the while. "Sorry gramps, not this time" said Inuyasha shredding his scroll. Kagomes gandfather grinned at him watching intently. Inuyasha froze like a statue but his eyes glared at the old man.
Inuka sniffed teh scroll, looked around for Saiyaka and seeing that she wasn't preasent burned her scroll with relish dropping the ashes on the old man who looked shocked once more. "My anchiant scrolls! Why would you do such a thing!?" he sobbed. "Because thats how you get rid of the blasted things" Inuka responded burning off Shipous scroll.
Sitting on Inuyasha who had tipped over she pondered out loud "Do I really wan't to let you loose?" "Kagome?" She added looking at the infurriated girl. "Leave the baka for all I care." she said sitting on the couch. "oh, but then you coudn't sit him, the spell he's under cancles out your beads" said Inuka slyly. Inuyasha's eyes went wide. "Blind if your sorry, and I'll get you out." Inuka said coming over to Inuyasha. He glared. "Impossible, only I know the incantation to" started Kagome's grandfather. Inuka burned the scroll bits off of Inuyasha sticking out her tounge. "I'm not sorry, wench" Inuyasha said to Inuka as he came after her. "Kagome?" Inuka called. "Sit boy!" she said as Inuyasha ate serious carpet.

[m1abrams]

"A question I had, you dont mean that question. The one right after our last encounter with Naraku do you," I said getting all nervous.
Well this was making me more nervous than I thought, I know exactly what she was talking about. I remembered back to the day I asked her while we sat on that rock, both of us injured. I had asked her to marry me, the question of all questions and now I was getting an answer. About this time I was sweating uncontrolably, I wasnt this nervous when I asked the blasted questions so why am I so nervous now that the answer is right on the tip of her toung.
"So uhh, do you have an answer?" I asked very nervously.
My heart was about to jump out of my damd body I was so nervous, I didnt know if she was going to say yes or what...I sure hope she did.

[Chibi-chan]

Saiyaka smiled at him, knowing that he was waiting for the answer. She could feel that he was nervous, yet anxious. The half demon slowly reached her hands up, cupping his face in her hands a little as she kissed him for a moment. She pulled away and gave a small nod. "I decided on...yes, I will," she murmured to him, smiling more as she said this.

[D-man]

im not good at story telling but what you have is purty cool

[DownRight-eviL]

Seraph and Vanyel jumped down the well and was... Unfortunately stuck in the Feudal Era. Vanyel, who unfortunately landed first, got a mouth full of dirt as Seraph landed on him.

"Ggggt teeeh heyl oppame!!" Vanyel flailed unsucessfully. Seraph grinned sheepishly as he helped Vanyel up.

"Seems like we're stuck here, Van..."

"Damn."

On the other side of the well, a monkey was cackling evilly. "They're still in Kansas, Toto..." the evil monkey said to no one in particular except itself because it was retarded. The evil monkey climbed up the well but slipped at the wrong moment. It ended up going back to the Feudal Era where Vanyel and Seraph were....

"Oh $h*t..." was all the monkey could say after it was stepped on by the oblivious Vanyel and Seraph.

[m1abrams]

When Saiyaka pulled away from the kiss and I heard her say yes, it felt like a huge load was taken off my shoulders. I was no longer nervous, but very happy instead...well I was happy before but this just made me even more happy. I reached over and put my arms around Saiyaka and just smiled.
"That is exactly what I hoping for," I said quite gleefully.
I didnt know what to do at that point, but I had this great urdge to run back to the house and start ranting and raving to everyone about what just happened and what Saiyaka said. I pulled back from Saiyaka and quickly gave her a kiss.
"What do we do now, I mean should we go back and tell everyone or...do you want to stay here for awhile longer," I asked still a little unsure of what to do now that me and Saiyaka were actually getting married.

[Chibi-chan]

"Well, it would be good to tell everybody the news...However, I'm not in much of a hurry, so we can head back more slowly," Saiyaka said to him, smiling. She nuzzled softly against shoulder as she gripped onto his hand and began to head back towards Kagome's house. Her heart was fluttering about in her chest, and she just felt so very happy at the moment. It was great that she could finally tell him without being interrupted by either Inuyasha or the other people who seemed intent on ruining this relationship. Well, maybe Inuyasha didn't want to ruin it, but he was sure doing a good job.

[Red Dragon]

Inuka had her hair pulled by Inuyasha and she nailed him in the gut. He didn't seem to flinch after all the goring his stomach had taken. He caught her in a bear hug and them tossed her off the couch causing her to lose thier game of racing magical carts with no horses. She went through a glass window and flipped in the air landing on the grass. The sound of crashing and shattering glass echoed in her mind. She stared at the little cuts on her arms as they dripped blood on to the soft grass. Inuyasha had followed her out to check on her, like a brother, but when she looked up she didn't seem to be looking at him.

"Father stop. Don't." she said looking at Inuyasha. Inuyasha's face was filled with concern as he approached her. He hadn't ment to hurt her. Kagome came out looking like she ment murder but that passed when she saw the state that Inuka was in. "Inuyasha, be careful" she whispered to him as she approached Inuka with some medical supplys, forgeting that a hanyou heals faster that a human.

Scenes were whirling in her head as Inuka tried to make the sounds stop. She saw Father killing things, strange shapes that cried out like lost souls. She could have cried out with them, drownd in her own tears, if she had been able to cry at all. "Please stop it." she pleaded catching hold of Fathers kimono, she heard his voice but couldn't decern the words. She flared, engolphing herself in flames that protected her form the shadows.

Inuyasha had asked Inuka if she was ok but all she had done was ask him to stop, grabbing his kimono's sleave. He saw the look of sadness and loss as she seemed to relive some terrible event. When she burst in to flames he didn't move, his fire rat cloth would deal with the flames as he called her name. "Inuka, it's alright." he said grabbing her shoulders.

As if waking from a terrible nightmare Inuka gasped and pulled Inuyasha's Kimono to herself. Inuyasha akwardly patted her head as she breathed a sigh of relief. Kagome gave her a hug and Inuyasha lingered, feeling responsible.

[m1abrams]

As me and Saiyaka walked back to the house, I didnt say much...infact I wasnt saying a word. Its not that something was upsetting me, the smile on my face blew that possibility out of the water. I could see the house now and noticed that Inuyasha Kagome and Inuka were all outside. Inuka was clutching onto Inuyasha for some strange reason that was beyond me. When we stopped and Inuyasha and Kagome looked up at us that had a concerned but confused look on thier faces.
"Whats going on," I asked.
"Inuyasha and Inuka were rough housing and Inuka got tossed through a window," Kagome said with a sigh.
"Through a window, Inuyasha why did you go and do that," I said rather surprised.
"Hey its not like I meant too," Inuyasha grumbled.
"Man you are so hopeless sometimes," I said as my really big smile came back.
Inuyasha's ear twitched and then looked at my face a little closer. He had never seen me so happy...well not since along time ago anyways. And even then I dont think I was ever this happy back then.
"Whats wrong with you," Inuyasha asked me.
"Wrong...nothing why," I asked.
"That smile on your face, you seem happy about someting...way to happy if you ask me. What have you been doing in the woods," Inuyasha questioned.
"Will you get your mind out of the gutter," I said as I pounded Inuyasha in the back of the head.

[Chibi-chan]

Saiyaka sent Inuyasha a death glare and sent him a kick to the back of the head. "That's not something you should be even thinking about!" she scolded, though a smile spread upon her face. "Anyway, get the others out here, please...Or we could go inside, one way or another, I don't care," she stated. The half demon wanted to tell them, knowing that they knew that Tach had already asked the question and all.

"Well, since it's getting rather dark, let's go inside and discuss whatever you're wanting to talk about," Kagome said with a smile, pulling Inuyasha by the hair and leading him back inside. She seemed to have been irritated with Inuyasha little comment that Saiyaka kicked him for.

[Red Dragon]

Keeping Inuyasha within her sight at all times Inuka reverted back to a some what normal state for a bit. She followed the otehrs in side and glanced over her shoulder at the dieing sun. Her tail began to grow back as she entered the living room where Tach and Saiyaka had gathered every one to discuss some thing. Her ears twiched as they grew accoustomed to thier new louder atmosphere. She tried to forget the strange memory or, nightmare that she had expierenced outside. She consentrated on the happy coulple in the room, their words radiating off of them even before they said them. 'So they're mates.' she thoughts grinning with the rest. 'Good, about time really'.

[m1abrams]

Miroku and Sango were again on the couch, that seemed to be their favorite part about Kagomes world, the comfy furniture. Shippou and Kokoru were captured and Kagome was keeping them still, Inuyasha was by Kagomes side with his usuall 'I could care less' look spread about his face. Kagomes mom, sota and Kagomes grandfather were just in the next room and Inuka was just off to our side. I had taken a seat on the floor infront of ther tv, everyone by this time was getting rather impaciant because I was stalling.
"So what is it allready," Inuyasha finally snapped.
"Will you hush allready," Kagome said glaring over at Inuyasha.
"What did I do, they are the ones taking so long to say what ever it is they have to say," Inuyasha said in an attempt to defend himself.
Kagome and Inuyasha were on the verge of yet another argument when I finally stepped in, they were starting to shout back and fourth at one another. And this I thought was the best time to speak up, though I was rather anoyed they were fighting yet again.
"Saiyaka and I are getting married," I said just loud enough for them to hear.
Inuyasha and Kagome stopped fighting at that moment and they both turned their heads and stared at us, Miroku and Sango had just about the same awe struck look on their faces...yeah they knew I asked, thanks to Inuyasha's big mouth...but untill know they had forgotten about it.
"Well congradulations to both of you, this is great news," Kagomes mom said breaking the scilence.
"Thank you Miss Higurashi," I said kindly.

[Red Dragon]

"Wonderful!" Inuka said hugging Tach and Saiyaka unexpectedly. She grinned at them both.

[Chibi-chan]

Saiyaka beamed some and found herself hugging Inuka back. When had she felt so happy before? For some reason, she couldn't figure out when and why. Oh well, that didn't really matter at the moment. Right now, Tach mattered to her. Tach was the one who she would be spending the rest of her life with, and she was very happy about this fact.

[m1abrams]

Kagome who had till this point been pondering the situation finally got up with a huge smile on her face. She was obviously happy for us, Inuyuasha I sure was as well, but I dont think he had ever been in thise kind of situation before. So he didnt really know what to say or do, he just kinda sat there.
"This is such great news, have you decided when the cerimony with be," Sango asked as she also got up to give Saiyaka and me a hug.
"Well I havnt really gotten that far yet," I said just now thinking about it.
"You mean you havnt thought about it at all," Kagome repeated.
"No not at all, my mind was on other matters when she said yes," I said laughing.
"How about children," Miroku blurted out from the couch.
At that point I all but froze where I stod, what the hell was I going to say to that.
"Well I uhhh...yeah I dont see why not," I said pretty sure of it.
I mean considering we were going to get married, children werent out of the question. But man did Miroku have the worst time to ask questions like that. I was kinda anoyed at him for bringing it up...again.

[Chibi-chan]

Saiyaka gave a look at Kagome and kind of shrugged helplessly at the fact that they really hadn't planned out anything other than wanting to get married. She then glared a little at Miroku, although she was blushing quite a bit at the moment. That question was actually something personal, and at the same time, for reasons unkown to her...it was a bit embarrassing to have it brought up in front of people.

[Red Dragon]

Inuka concked Miroku on the head and pushed him behind the couch. He was unconscience. Not wanting thier moment to be spoiled she pulled out a little yinyang necklace of onyx and white jade. "Your first wedding gift" she said handing it to the astonished Saiyaka. The yin and yang broke apart and Saiyaka looked sad that it had broken. "It's ok, its supose to do that. Both of you can wear one and you'll always know where the other one is." Inuka explained blushing. She was still getting used to the social interaction on such a great scale and she was nervious for some reason.

[m1abrams]

I looked at my half of the yin yang, I had picked up the black half. I stuck it in my pocket and smiled, I found it amuzing that Miroku had once again been bashed in the head for saying something like that.
"Thanks alot Inuka, I will always keep it in my pocket," I said quite thankful to her.
"Breakfast is ready everyone," Kagomes mom said poking her head in through the door.
"Breakfast...yeah I guess we hadnt had much to eat this morning," I said remembering the fact I was hungry.
"Food allright," Kokoru yelled putting a fist into the air.
Kokoru and Shippou were the first ones to run into the dinning area, ever since she woke both her and Shippou have been so entergenic. And she had an appitite that could kill.
"We best get in there before they eat is all...again," Sango sighed remembering dinner last night.
"I could go for some of those omlet things right about now," I said grabbing Saiyaka's hand and making my way towards the food.
"Come on Miroku, time to eat," Sango said as she dragged Miroku along the floor.
Sango and Miroku were quite the couple in my opinion, though they didnt act like it they did care for eachother...or thats what I had gathered from Kagome.

[Chibi-chan]

Saiyaka smiled, holding her piece close. "I'm so happy," she murmured out loud, closing her eyes and letting out a rather relaxed sigh. Then she caught the smell of the food, breaking into a wide smile. "Oooh, I'm starving," she exclaimed, looking at the wide assortment of food that was placed on the table.

[m1abrams]

I made sure that I got some of the food for me and Saiyaka before Kokoru and Shippou ate it all, it came to a point where Inuyasha grabbed both of them by the tail and had to pull them away from the food. I think they were a little to excited to be in Kagomes time. It wasnt long before everyone had eaten, I think we all must have been starving or something.
"Hey Kagomes, did you say you were going to take us all into town," Sango asked Kagome as we sat around the table.
"Oh yeah I did didnt I," Kagome remembered.
"So what are we waiting for, lets go," Shippou shouted happily.
"Uh Shippou, you can't go," Miroku pointed out.
"Oh why not," Shippou said rather dissapointed.
"Shippou you are a demon, and people in Kagomes time dont take to kindly to demons," Sango said feeling sorry for shippou.
Both Kokoru and Shippou didnt look very happy about it, they both really wanted to go an see the city just as much if not more than we all did.
"I dont see why we can't just take them along, who cares if they are demons or not. Your people are going to have to get used to us eventually," I said leaning forward to look at Kagome.

[Chibi-chan]

"...Why would they have to get used to it?" Saiyaka asked, looking a little puzzled at Tach's remark. "It's not like we're going to be living here forever and create a family here, right?" she asked, tilting her head to the side a little bit. If that's what Tach was thinking, then things might be a little bit complicating. At least, that's what she thought about this. "Besides...I don't think that people here would believe us to be demons, ne?"

[m1abrams]

"No I'm not saying we would live here of course not, that would be just too much of a burden on Kagome and her family anyways," I said smiling.
"Than what exactly did you mean by that," Miroku asked me also a little puzzled.
"Well think about it, how much longer would Kagome be able to keep Inuyasha a secret, and since everyone else is able to travel here now. Then whats the point of trying and hiding something that cannot be hidden, and like Saiyaka said, they wouldnt beleive us even if we did tell them we were demons, right?" I said looking back at Kagome.
"Thats not the point," Kagome shouted.
"Than what is, please enlighten us," I said raising a brow.
Kagome looked really flustered now, she really didnt have much of a point to keeping us sheltered in her house anymore, not even Shippou and Kokoru really. Everyone was looking at Kagome waiting for an answer, she knew that there was only one way to solve this.
"Fine...but only for awhile okay, and we have to try and not make alot of attention," Kagome said with a sigh.
With that Shippou and Kokoru jumped into the air with a shout and ran out the door, they didnt go any farther than that though, they waited for us to catch up. Sango and Miroku were the first to get up and make their way towards the door, they were fallowed by Inuyasha practically dragging a very grumpy Kagome. I got to my feet and stretched and then looked down at Saiyaka.
"Well we best get going, becuase unfortunetly after this...we need to return to our time," I said as I reached a hand down to help her up.

[Chibi-chan]

Saiyaka smiled a little as he pulled her to her feet, then looped her arm through his, keeping close to his side as she followed the others outside. Since it was dark out, she hoped that there wouldn't be all that many humans out on the street while they were exploring. After all, with Shippo's tail, people may tend to stare.

[m1abrams]

We had made are way into the city, and there were not many people around since it was dark out. Saiyaka had her arm looped through mine and we were in the middle of the group, Sango and Miroku were behind us and Inuyasha and Kagome were ahead...but it was Shippou and Kokoru who were farthest ahead checking out a store.
"Hey you guys dont get to far ahead," I shouted out to them.
"Of course master Tach, we are just exploring," Kokoru shouted back even though she did really listen to me.
"Hey look at that, what is it," Shippou shouted pointed out into the distance.
We all turned our heads and looked at what shippou was pointing at, it was a large wheel that stood so tall into the sky it hurt my neck to look up that far. It had many lights on it and it was slowly turning around.
"Oh thats a farris wheel, its part of the park," Kagome said as we all stopped at the park entrance.
"Can we go," Shippou asked looking back at Kagome.
"Well I dunno, there might be alot of people there," Kagome said wearily.
"Oh come on Kagome, even if there are it wont matter much, we are leaving first thing in the morning. After that it will probably be a long time before we can all come back here, why not just have fun now...while we still have the chance," I said as me and Saiyaka walked passed Kagome and Inuyasha.
Kagome again didnt have much choice in the matter, everyone kept going and she just fallowed again, even though this was a tad unsettling for her. She was starting to get used to it, maybe having us here wasnt that bad after all.

[Red Dragon]

People stared at her as she made her way after the gang. Inuka felt proud that she had done some thing nice for Saiyaka and Tach. Some of the human males were looking at her blatently interested but slightly confused at her ears and tail. She heard them wisper about a park advertisement. She noticed some of them tailing her as they watched her from behind various street vendors and trees. 'Like you stand a chance' she thought grinning, revieling her fangs. She caught up with Shipou and Kokoru and asked if they wanted her to fly them up to the giant shining wheels. "Yeah!" they squealed. Shippou climbed up her to rest on her shoulders while she scooped up Kokoru lightly. Kagome looked concerned and Inuyasha got ready to follow her up to the wheel. 'Just like in the spell' she thought glancing over at them. Kagome was definatly his mate if only in title. He cared for her, even if he had a hard time showing it.
She flew up to the giant wheel and deposited teh squealing kids in a blue metal basket. She saw the perplexed Kagome and the confident Inuyasha as he stopped in a yellow one and found a couple there already. The girl screamed and Inuyasha swore jumpin gover to an empty green one. She saw Tach and Saiyaka still on the ground. Flying back she saw Miroku with a red handprint on his face with Sango on Kirara. She transformed in to a giant white dog with golden eyes, the only thing that seperated her from looking like Seshomaru, Inuyasha and Father. She landed and Saiyaka and Tach climbed on as she took off toward the wheel.

[Chibi-chan]

Saiyaka blinked a little, knowing that Kagome was going to have an abosolute fit because of Inuka transforming. The half demon secretly hoped that nobody had seen thier friend transform, just so they could get onto one of the baskets on the 'ferris wheel'.

[Red Dragon]

Kagome was having fits from what Inuka could hear, but she figured that if the humans didn't believe in demons then the'd make up some thing ot explain it. "Did you see that huge dog? They must have some sort of new ride! Thet go check it out!" she heard s group of guys and girld say walking off. She sat content in a red basket.

[m1abrams]

"Oh boy I wasnt counting on that," I said looking at Inuka in her full demon form.
I had not even thought of that, Inuka transforming like that. It made what I said before an understatement, maybe we should have just stayed at Kagomes house.
"Well atleast we are having some fun," I said with a laugh.
"You can say that again," Kokoru shouted from another one of the baskets.
As the farris wheel started to turn again, and our basket made it to the top. We could see just about the entire city, all the lights spread out for miles on end. This was a rather fitting end to our stay here, but that wasnt in the end of it. It seemed that tonight must have been special, becuase the wheel stopped turning. And massive burst of lights lit up the sky, they were fireworks. I watched the great burst of lights and reached my hand over and grabbed ahold of Saiyaka's hand.

[Chibi-chan]

Saiyaka smiled and rested her head gently on Tach's shoulder, watching the fireworks. As the different colors burst in the sky, they reflected in her eyes, turning them various colors. "Thing here are strange, yet some of them are quite beautiful," she murmured softly, her smile spreading more. "I really do like it here, away from everything else that's troubling me..." she stated, trailing off after a moment. "I'm glad that we could come here and be able to talk alone...That I could tell you how much I love you..."

[m1abrams]

"Me too, it was great being able to come here. I think everyone would agree with me on that, its funny to think about whats happening back in our time. To think it seems so far away but its really happening right where we stand, myabe when we get Kohaku back we can return here for another visit. That would be nice," I said as we both watched the fireworks.
As I sat there, and thought more about what was happening back in our time. I couldnt help but wish I didnt have to go back, but as I thought about it, the more I was able to reasure myself that once we had taken back Kohaku, and proven to Naraku that we are not to be messed with. Things would become as peacful there as they are here.
"Hey Tach," Inuyasha yelled over to me.
"Yeah what is it," I yelled back looking at him and Kagome in the next basket up.
"I've been thinking about something that I need your advice on," Inuyasha said pearing over the side.
"Oh no he's been thinking, we are all in trouble now," Shippou snikered from within Inuyasha's basket.
"Shut it Shippou," Inuyasha said as I herd him hit Shippou in the head.
"What could you need my advice on," I asked a little confused.
"I'll talk to you about it latter, just thought I would let ya know now," Inuyasha said sitting back down in his basket.
Well that was pretty weird, its the first time I have ever heard Inuyasha asked for my advice. What could he possibily need to know from me, its not like he was looking for fighting tips or anything...was he.

[Chibi-chan]

"...Kohaku," Saiyaka murmrued softly, closing her eyes and sighing. "You know, truth be told...I forgot all about him for a while, just by being here and having fun," she whispered, looking quite ashamed by this fact. She hoped that the boy was alright being with Naraku. After all, the half demon had done some things that were going to be considered as betrayal towards Naraku. He might decide that, as punishment, Kohaku would be killed.

Saiyaka's eyes teared up as she shuddered at the thought, clinging onto Tach as if that would help anything.

[m1abrams]

I felt start to shudder when I mentioned what was happening in our time, I reached over with my other arm and put it around her.
"Hey dont worry about it, for awhile I had also compleatly forgotten about it. This place is so peaceful anyone could. You dont have to be ashamed about it, and I am sure Kohaku will be fine when we get there," I said holding her tightly.
It was then that the Farris wheel started to move again, and one by one the operator let people out. When it came down to our basket he looked a little puzzled, he looked at my ears and cocked his head to the side.
"Boy are you allright," the man asked me.
"Why do you ask," I said stepping out the basket still holding Saiyaka's hand.
"Those ears, they are..." The man stopped not sure how to put it.
"Oh my ears, yeah they are allways like that. You see old man, I am not human, I'm a demon," I said quietly like it was some kind of big secret.
After we had all gotten off and were walking away from the Farris wheel, the old man shook his head and went back to his business.
"Crazy kids these days, always with the new fassion trends," the man said refering to my ears thinking they were really fake.

[Kaigirl09]

Mischa is sitting in a tree. She's looking at Saiyaka and Kokaku. She's thinking, What's going on? Then she sees her brother, Miroku being attacked by a demon disguised as a woman. Then goes down to stop Miroku. But an old lover, Sesshomaru stops her. "Hello, love." Sesshomaru tells Mischa. "What are you doing. I'm am a half-demon. You hate half-demons! We're over!" Mischa tells Sesshomaru. "I don't care if you're even human. I love you. You and Rin are the only human or half-human that I can stand. I love you and I always will." Sesshomaru then kisses Mischa. Mischa first doesn't like it but then she gets into the kiss. Then Sesshomaru told Mischa, "Go and save your brother and then 1 hour later come to where we first met. I'll be waiting. Bye." Mischa said, "Ok, Sesshomaru." Then Mischa leaves into the direction that Miroku is at. Then Sesshomaru is on his way to the river side, where Sesshomaru and Mischa first met.

[Chibi-chan]

Saiyaka smiled at Tach and laid her head back down on his shoulder, loosening her grip on his arm a little bit. When the man opperating the giant wheel spoke of Tach's ears, she froze a little, looking to her lover. She stiffled a laugh when he actually told the man the truth, the man not really believing him. "That worked out fine," she whispered, grinning.

She then remembered something that she had seen when they were up on the wheel. It was a something that she wanted to check out next. Pulling Tach along, she headed towards a rather large structure. There were quite a few hills, though they were created out of wood. Loud yells of excitement and a little bit of fear were comming from the structure. What Saiayak could have sworn was a long snake of some sort, raced across the stucture, going up and down hills with great speed.

[Chibi-chan]

...Uh...Sorry to tell you, Kaigirl09, but I think that you need to go and get your character approved first. Then you really, REALLY need to figure out the fact that there are no demons in KAGOME'S ERA, especailly not Sesshomaru!

[m1abrams]

(OOC: okay Kaigirl09 I have no idea where you are...who you are...and whats going on. If you could try and break up what you are saying a little more that would be great. Also if you havnt signed up for this RPG you should go do that now and then come back.

I am probably sounding a little like a jerk right now but I am not trying to, also when playing the game try and not take characters that were in one spot and then magically transport then somewhere else. Also try and not change the original characters personalities, I am sure you think Sesshomaru's characters is great, but try and not make him seem like he is someone or has a compleatly new personality. I am not trying to drive you away from the RPG, we always love to have more people come along. But try and fallow the rules of the game, if you need anymore help just PM me and I would be more than glad to give you a hand)

As Saiyaka dragged me towards this giant wooden thing, I got more and more nervous as I saw the the things ontop of it moving around at great speed. Before I knew it we were at the head of the like ready to get into one of these things. I saw people get off and then the man at the gate showed us onto the front seat. I sat down and a large bar came down infront of me keeping me in the seat. I looked rather nervous as I looked behind me at Inuyasha and Kagome who had also decided to come along.
"Hey ah Kagome is this thing safe," I asked nervously.
"Oh yeah of course it is, its called a roller coasters, they are alot of fun," Kagome said with a smile.
"Okay what ever you say," I said holding on tightly despite Kagome's words.

[Chibi-chan]

Saiyaka looked absolutely thrilled about this ride that Kagome called a 'roller coaster' and immediately hopped into the seat next to Tach, a grin on her face. "Get this thing going!" she called out to a woman who was at some sort of controls. She slightly grinned as the woman let out a sigh and mumbled something under her breath, pressing a button.

[m1abrams]

When the carts that we were in started to move, I became quite worried as it started to go up a large hill.
"Kagome are you sure this thing is safe," I said getting more nervous by the minute.
"Oh dont be such a coward Tach, just sit back and enjoy the ride," Inuyasha said patting me on the back laughing.
I just gulped and watched as we got ever closer to the top of the hill, and when we did and I looked over the top and the huge drop below. Not only did my eyes bulge, but so did Inuyasha's. He wasnt exactly expecting the drop...at all, he quickly became just as nervous as I was. However both Kagome and Saiyaka seemed to be having a blast.
"Oh get me off this thing," I yelled just as the roller coaster started to speed down the hill.

[Chibi-chan]

Saiyaka was practically standing up in her seat as far as the bar would allow her, a grin plastered on her face as they were almost about to go down the hill. She tried to stand further, to peer over the edge, being in the first cart.

Kagome, however, managed to grab Saiyaka by the back of her shirt and tug her back down in the seat, just before the carts rolled down the hill at top speed. "You can't stand up Saiyakaaaaaaaah!" she yelled as the coaster went down the hill.

Saiyaka glanced back at Kagome, and when she did, saw people with their arms held up high. She turned back to face ahead and slowly put her arms in the air as well. "YEEEEAAAAH!" she cried out, this small action seeming to make the ride much more enjoyable for some reason.

[The Lost Angel]

Do you mnd if i join?i posted my char in the sign-up and ive been reading this rpg for awhile so i know whats going on

[m1abrams]

(OOC: Of course MishidoWasabi you can join, I warn you though, this RPG is fast paced, its not uncommon for someone to post, and then come back 2 days latter and find 2 more pages added. But of course come on board, I will re check your character and see who you are and stuff)

My stumach seemed to turn upside down as the roller coasters sped down the giant hill and around sharp corners, both me and Inuyasha were plastered to the back of our seats. Not daring to even move and inch out of fear of falling out, I closed my eyes as tightly as I could. But when I did open them I saw we still had a ways to go. Over another hill, through a tunnel, and around even more sharp turns. When the carts finally started to slow down and come back to the begining, I let out the breath I had taken at the begining of the ride.
"See Tach I told you it would be fine, wasnt it fun," Kagome said with a smile quite enjoying the ride.
"Yeah sure...fun," I said as the bars moved forward to let us out.
As quickly as I could I jumped out of the roller coaster and stood a good distance back. Inuyasha quickly joined me, both of us were gasping for air since we had held our breath the entire ride.
"I'm never going on that thing again," Inuyasha said as he panted.
"I second that," I said sitting down on a bench to catch my breath.

[Chibi-chan]

Saiyaka got off the ride rather reluctantly. She had wanted to go on a second time, so just stayed in her seat. However, it didn't seem that things worked that way. The lady who was operating the ride ordered her out of the seat and told her to get back in line if she wanted to ride again. Letting out a sigh, she hopped out of the seat and joined Tach and the others.

"That was...THE GREATEST THING IN THE WORD!" she stated, grinning like an idiot. "I wanna go again!"

Kagome blinked at Saiyaka, then laughed, shaking her head a little bit. "How about we come back later if you want to do that," the girl suggested, finding all of this to be rather amusing. She looked at the boys and sighed. "Come on! For demons, you two are sure scared easily!"

[The Lost Angel]

Spike ran of the roller coaster and ran to a trash can.He barfed in the trash can"i aint ever going on that thing again"he said and barfed again.He saw the other demons over on the bench."Are those demons like me"he muttered under his breath.He walked towards a 'snack bar' and thought'thatd be cool if they were like me and i wasnt the only demon hear'.He got a big ball of cotton candy and some soda to wash is mouth from the barf and he sat down on a bench eating the cotton candy and drinking the soda."mmmm this is good"he said eating the cotton candy and drinking the soda.

[m1abrams]

"Come back...here...later," squeaked not wanting to go near that thing ever again.
"I dont think so, that thing is insain, you are never getting me back on their," Inuyasha shouted.
"Allright fine, your both such chickens," Kagome sighed.
With that we rejoined the others and started to make our way to the edge of the park, it was late and we did have to set out tomarrow. Even though none of us really wanted to, we had to get back to our time and get back Kohaku. As we walked off, I couldnt help but think I sensed another demon.
"No that can't be, they're arent any demons in Kagomes time...except us of course," I said to myself quietly.
"What was that Tach," Inuyasha asked.
"Oh nothing, I was just thinking outloud thats all," I said smiling at Inuyasha.
"You do that way to often ya know, one of these days you are going to say something you regret," Inuyasha said as he put his hands behind his head and walked along.
"This coming from the guy who eats dirt all the time," I said narrowing my eyes at Inuyasha.
"Just keep it up Tach and see what happens," Inuyasha said shaking a fist.
"Oh like you could do anything to me," I bragged raising a brow.
"You bet I could," Inuyasha said spinning around and staring me in the eye.
Kagome and the others just sighed as me and Inuyasha started to pick another fight with eachother, though it probably wasnt the best place for it considering there were enough people staring at us anyways. Then it was Kagomes turn to attract attention.
"Inuyasha Sit boy," Kagome said mearly out of instinct.
Before she realized her error Inuyasha was face down in the pavement, and everyone within earshot of the massive bang it made started looking at the twitching Inuyasha.
"Hahaha serves you right Inuyasha," I said ignoring all the looks we were getting.

[Chibi-chan]

"Hn...And here Kagome said not to attract too much attention!" Saiyaka said with a laugh, prodding Inuyasha's head with her foot. She stopped this as she sniffed the air, catching the scent of food. At least, she thought that it was food. Blinking a little bit, she began to head in the direction of a consession stand. What she was smelling was a round object covered in cheese and other objects that she couldn't quite identify. "Oooh! What's this?!"

The man at the stand raised a questioning eyebrow at Saiyaka and looked to what she was pointing to. "Err...That would be pizza," he stated, sounding like he was addressing a retarded person.

[The Lost Angel]

Spike perked his ears up hearing the noise.He ran over and saw the demons and the crowd."Its the same demons"he said and and drank his soda."I have to figure out away to keep the crowd away from there"he said and ate some cotten candy."I know!"he said and pointed his finger in the air."Hey all foods on me"he said and hoped it get the crowds attention and it did.The crowd was charging after Spike.Spike was running all over the park and finally he lost them and went back to the group of demons to see if there were anymore humans around."Good there all gone"he said in relief and ate more cottan candy.
